Take A Kid Fishing - Shout Out

[Greenbone]

Friends of Take A Kid Fishing

Many thanks again for taking your time on Saturday to give a child memories they won’t forget for a long time, maybe never. It was a great effort on everyone’s part to make this ten year anniversary of Take a Kid Fishing a success. And we know it’s a success when the kids get off their boats and start the bragging rights!

We are creating some true fishermen!!!

Some of the comments I heard were: “I caught a shark!” “I saw a turtle.” “I drove the boat.” “We must have caught 30 fish.” “Yes…I caught both of these!” Those are just some off the top of my head that I can remember. There were so many more!

And what about the hotdogs this year? Did Mike (Atkins) and Tommy (Capital City Trailers) do a great job, or what? How ‘bout those beans??? The cookout was a great way to end a cool day on the bay. Thanks to Atkins for providing the food again this year; Tommy (Capital City Trailers) for providing the grill; and Mike Scibelli (Atkins) for helping to cook; Marty Spears (Flowers Bakery); Gary Keys (E&M Motors); and Harvest Printing. The City of St. Marks came through again by providing the pavilion for our use and waiving the ramp fee for participating captains. Wow, that’s a lot of thanks! Most of all, none of this would have happened without YOU! Thanks captains, family, friends, and BigBendFishing.net.

Looking forward to next year. Hope y’all can do it again!

Thanks Don and Karen for all of your hard work planning this event. I'm one of the houseparents at FBCH. The kids are still talking about the trip and how many fish they caught. Our 4 year old and 5 year old girl's were estadic. One of them caught a shark and she's still talking about it. Thanks Doug for taking my wife and the girl's out. They had a ball! Thanks Dom for taking Kevin, Landon and me out. Loved that Sterling boat! What a fishing machine. Thanks also to the guys who did the food. The beans were awesome! It was a great day of fishing! Bobby
