Several of you have generously donated rods and reels to our club to use at our functions. Today we hosted our largest event ever. We had over 70 kids from various shelters around the area at our club for a morning of fishing and then a great meal prepared by our talented chefs. We worked yesterday to rig up every rod and reel we had with hooks, weights, and bobbers so all the kids would have a rod to use. Many caught their first fish and were thrilled at the experience. So many never had a male figure in their life and mom did not have time or money to teach them the simple act of casting a rod and reel, so we had our work cut out for us, but most caught on quickly and many caught fish.
Thanks from Lexington Wildlife Chapter and myself for your part in making this possible.
