Important Note from Kern River Valley Chamber of Commerce

There is no higher priority to the Kern River Valley Chamber of Commerce than our visitors, patrons, promoters, sponsors and local community residents.

On Thursday, March 12, 2020 Govenor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order directing Californians to follow public health directives which include postponing or canceling large gatherings of more than 250 people of indoor or outdoor events.

After multiple communications with Kern County Public Health officials we have no option at this time but to postpone the 31st Annual Isabella Lake Fishing Derby for the safety of our anglers, their families and the residents of the Kern River Valley

Under the direction of the State of California, Kern County and partnership with the Unites States Forest Service, we have postponed the April 4-6, 2020 Isabella Lake Fishing Derby to May 9-11, 2020 to do our part to protect the public health and slow the spread of the COVID-19.

Please stay tuned as we progress thru this change and for further updates.

I ask you to direct any and all questions to the email address at  office@kernrivervalley.com, I will answer everything email we recieve.

Sincerely, Fred Clark
President Kern River Valley Chamber of Commerce
Chairman Isabella Lake Fishing Derby
