The Pink Salmon Festival was a great success yesterday. Good job and thanks to everyone involved.
Approx. 120 kids got to go fishing for their first time. There was a wind up picnic at Peddar Bay with lots of food and every kid went home with a hat, t-shirt, backpack and a brand new fishing rod! (and a limit of pinks)
This was a great event and I strongly encourage anyone to get involved and volunteer your boat and time for the day. It is 1 day of your time every 2 years to create a life memory for a child.
We had 2 - 10 year olds on our boat who had never had the opportunity to do what most of us do every weekend.
The young girl on our boat actually said on the boat ride out "This is like I'm dreaming!"
Thanks Frayedknot for getting me involved and Tailout for the use of your boat.
