Fishing Forever and Family Fishing Weekend

Fishing Forever and Family Fishing Weekend

Again this year on Fathers’ Day weekend we will host a popular event at Cottonwood Lake which is at a beautiful Central Kootenay Regional District park.

On Saturday, June 17, 2017 from 10 am to 4 pm we will conduct Fishing Forever – a BCWF program designed to cater to those of any age who are handicapped in some way.  It could be as simple as impaired mobility.  Their caregivers are required to be present.

The emphasis shifts on Sunday, June 18 (same times) to the kids and their parents.

We expect 300+ bodies to appear that weekend.  Club members, and friends, can do their part by bringing a car top size boat with oars or electric motor (no gasoline outboards) and, to really enjoy the day, stay to captain the boat with our clients.

There is no charge to our participants or volunteers.  No fishing licence is required on this weekend (thanks to BC government)

FISHING FOREVER

Fishing Forever and Family Fishing Weekend
The Fishing Forever Weekend is a yearly family event that The Nelson Rod And Gun Club, in association with BCWF, has continued since 2004 and has grown 50% annually. It creates an opportunity for disabled, seniors and families to enjoy a day of fishing in the beautiful setting of Cottonwood Lake. However, volunteers, boats* and operators are seriously needed to ensure its success.
Volunteers are needed for:
– Moving equipment to the site and setting up on Friday afternoon, June 19.
– Help in the kitchen, 3 hour shift (Sat. & Sun.),
– Help organize fishing gear, registration, boats & passengers, life jackets and boat operators (Sat. & Sun.), and
– Help to take it all down on Sunday late afternoon (4 pm).

Commodores will be needed to oversee and coordinate the ‘on water’ activities (Sat. & Sun.).
If you can provide any assistance, please call Richard Green (250) 352-5609 or Joani Trickett (250) 825-4219. Please help ensure its continued success!
* Boats must have electric motors or oars. No gas engines permitted.
