Hi Rodney,
Thanks for signing up to be a boat captain. Would you take a minute to forward this email to anyone you think might be interested in coming to volunteer? (I heard that Larry can’t come, and I did send an email to Karl Kramer – though I am not remembering who else is in the Western Bass Club at the moment.) I’d appreciate it!
C.A.S.T. for Kids – Lake Washington (Coulon Park, Renton) on September 10th
Less than 3 weeks till we get to take special kids fishing! Please go sign-up online so I know we’ll have enough fisherman & boaters to take the 50 kids out!
The story, as it continues to unravel: the fishing restriction on Lake Washington forced us to change the format of the event. We will have trout in nets for the kids to catch, as well as several shore activities, including: boat rides, casting practice, craft activity, interacting with the Renton Fire Water Safety Team diver while he is underwater, and a face painter! Now, WDFW has removed the fishing restriction which means we can go fishing on the lake, but it is too late for me to cancel all of these great shore activities. So, we will make it a “Choose Your Own Adventure” for the kids – go fishing on the lake, on shore, both and/or do it all.
I have 8 fishing volunteers signed up so far – I need 50! And this year, that includes boat captains (giving boat rides), fishing captains (normal format of taking kid out fishing), shore fisherman (no boat, helping a kid fish on shore). Again please sign-up today and let me know your preferred role! And please forward this email to others you know who you think would enjoy sharing a day of fishing with a special kid!
Take a Warrior Fishing (TWF) – American Lake on September 24th
You can also sign up to take a warrior out fishing. Again, due to the fishing restriction on Lake Washington we decided to move the event to American Lake North Park this year. The launch fees have been waived for us by the City of Lakewood, and we will have lunch for everyone, served lunch by the Steilacoom Kiwanis club.
Thanks in advance for all of your support of C.A.S.T. for Kids! I hope you find the value in these events and will share about them with others – to come volunteer and/or to consider donating to help.
I look forward to seeing you in September,
