During Free Fishing Days\, anyone may fish in the Show-Me State without having to buy a fishing permit\, trout permit\, or trout park daily tag. \nFree Fishing Days is an annual MDC event that takes place statewide during the Saturday and Sunday following the first Monday in June. \nAside from not needing permits\, other fishing regulations remain in effect\, such as limits on size and number of fish an angler may keep.

Trespass laws remain in effect on private property. \nConservation makes Missouri a great place to fish\, and Free Fishing Days encourages people to sample Missouri’s abundant fishing opportunities.

More than 200 different fish species are found in Missouri\, with more than 20 of them being game fish for the state’s more than 1.1 million anglers. \nFor information on Missouri fishing regulations\, fish identification\, and more\, get a copy of MDC’s 2026 Summary of Missouri Fishing Regulations\, available where permits are sold\, or online at mdc.mo.gov/about-us/about-regulations/summary-missouri-fishing-regulations. \nWant to learn to fish?

SUMMARY:Pickleball players wanted
DESCRIPTION:The tennis courts in Tarkio have recently been refinished and with that\, so has the pickleball court. If you are interested in playing in a pickleball league\, please meet at the court at 6:00 p.m. Monday\, June 8. If you don’t know how to play\, but want to\, don’t worry. There are players who will teach you! The courts are located at the intersection of Hwy. 59 and Maple Street in Tarkio. \nPickleball is the fastest growing sport in the United States. \nPickleball attracts players for a number of reasons. In addition to promoting socialization and serving as a generally entertaining activity\, pickleball offers a number of health benefits. Pickleball is a great cardiovascular workout and also helps to improve lung function and can strengthen the heart. Also\, because pickleball is played on a smaller court than a regulation tennis court\, it can be easier on players’ joints since it doesn’t require covering as much ground.

SUMMARY:Lakota culture and care of Mother Earth
DESCRIPTION:The Brownville Fine Arts Association will present the first program of the 2026 season Speakers Series this Saturday\, June 20\, at the Schoolhouse Art Gallery in Brownville\, Nebraska. The program will begin at 10:00 a.m. \nMary M. Hines is the author of “Who Cries for Mother Earth.” She is a writer and poet who has won numerous awards including an Independent Publisher Book Award in Visionary Fiction\, a Next Generation Indie Book Award\, and a National Telly Award. Hines grew up in the Black Hills of South Dakota\, and her ancestry and writing are based on the Lakota ways as were gratefully taught to her by a Medicine Man from the Sicangu Lakota tribe. Her purpose in writing and speaking is to help conservation efforts to save Mother Earth. \n“This presentation discusses the relationship between Lakota culture and stewardship of the land\, according to Humanities Nebraska. “Most Native Americans have a deep connection to the natural world. The Lakota spiritual principle of “Mitakuye Oyasin” or “All my Relations” means we are all connected to each other\, to all species of animals and plants\, and all life – including Mother Earth and Father Sky. The program explores why more understanding of Lakota culture and spiritual beliefs might help us all open ourselves to new thinking about how to become better stewards of our beautiful planet Earth.” \nThe program is free and open to the public. It is sponsored by Humanities Nebraska and Brownville Fine Arts Association. The Schoolhouse Art Gallery is located at 427 Main Street in Brownville.

SUMMARY:Brownville Concert Series presents SoulRoot Band
DESCRIPTION:The Brownville Concert Series is thrilled to welcome back to Brownville\, SoulRoot Band. Playing all your favorites from the last six decades\, SoulRoot has become one of the most requested Top 40 cover bands in Missouri. Strong vocals with spot on four-part harmonies\, blazing guitar licks\, and a rock-solid rhythm section is what you should expect! The show will be in cabaret Friday and Saturday\, July 10 and 11\, at 7:30 p.m.\, and Sunday\, July 12\, at 2:00 p.m. Sponsors are  Dick and Jennifer James\, J. Randel Smith and Jane Crooker Smith Charitable Trust\, and Community Insurance Group & State Bank of Table Rock. \nWhat do you get when you put five guys together who have over 80 years combined experience\, and all have a desire and passion for performing music? You get SoulRoot! An evening spent with SoulRoot will bring you the music that you love from many different genres. \nSoulRoot has a deep love for live music that fuels everything they do. Back in 2012\, lead vocalist Ron Schieferdecker and guitarish/vocalist Rob Frommel were looking for a misfit rhythm section and grabbed bassist Bill Roe and drummer Johnny Walker. Together\, the four of them forged the SoulRoot sound and rocked the socks off Mid-Mo. In 2017\, the guys found their long-lost-sister\, keyboardist/vocalist Theese Weber. The band knew they had more adventures ahead and added their secret weapon\, guitarist/vocalist Paul Kendrick in 2022. \nOver the years\, they have become family and love to hang out almost as much as bringing music to life on stage together. Come out and have some fun with SoulRoot! \nTickets are $25 for adults and $16 for students. They can be purchased online at www.brownvilleconcertseries.org\, on Facebook or call 402-825-3331. The Nebraska Arts Council\, a state agency\, supports this program through a matching grant funded by the Nebraska Legislature\, the National Endowment for the Arts and the Nebraska Cultural Endowment.
