The lake is also home of the annual Macy's Fishing Contest for kids aged 14 and under. Held each July at the rustic shelter located near the Wollman Center and Rink, the fishing contest runs for several days and prizes are awarded. Groups of 10 or more require advance reservations. Registration for individuals is available at the event site. Pedal boating is a terrific way to see the lake up close from April until October.
Boats hold up to four adults.
