[Wink] Hi Kim , do you think you can send me a flyer or something about your event , how long has it been going on , and other things that might make a boat company donate something ! Also , how big do the boats need to be ? I work for Lund boats , and will give it my best shot at getting you something , but you have to understand that with the hard times everyone is going through now , it might be tough !

Hi Flagmanonice
[font "Times New Roman"]Thank You for answering my post, I have 2 to 20 kids from the Take me Fishing program, that I take shore, dock, or rented or bowered boats, Fishing. I furnish everything they need self funded, bait, tackle or rod and whatever needed, at no charge and with help form a few people, I’m looking for a boat that I can get in and out of the water easy, can take me in the little coves, along the banks with me and a kid and Guest on it 16, 18 ft, fishing seats, platforms, storage, live well, safe and wont break down on me, with a kid, on a lake somewhere, not something I have to have fixed all the time, something the kids feel safe on and experience the great outdoors, lean a lesson or two about environment a have a totally enjoyable experience for them. And Boat Angle has offered $500 toward the boat. Plus I also Chair the Annual Carnation Festival Fishing Derby with 150 kids, prizes, fishing experience, friendships, and fun for all and this is our 50th year this year for the Festival. I’m trying to get a rod and reel and maybe a tackle box in every kids hands that need one with help from all the AmbasSadors across the united States, and remember if You Live to fish Take the Pledge!
