“Klineline Kids Fishing” Program Sponsor,
On April 13, 2013, the 13th Annual “Klineline Kids Fishing” event will be held at Klineline Pond. Over 2.000 children, ages 5-14, along with their parents, are expected to attend and will have the opportunity to experience and learn about the sport of fishing. A "Special Needs Kids Fishing Day" will be dedicated on Friday April 12, 2013.
Presented by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife and Klineline Kids Fishing, this program is aimed at getting more kids involved in fishing and building a base for the future stewards of this resource.
Fewer and fewer kids are taking part in the sport of fishing either because of environmental or economic factors. This is a disturbing trend. To create stewards for our future fisheries we need to introduce children to the beneficial aspects of fishing as an individual and family activity and as a way to become more aware of our natural resources.
The “Klineline Kids Fishing” event accomplishes both of these goals. First, it gives the child an opportunity to experience the thrill of catching a fish. Second, educational sessions, offered by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife and local fishing groups, will help the child learn more about fishing and the outdoors.
We would like to ask for your support in putting together this worthwhile event at Klineline Pond. We are asking for a donation of $250 or more. For this donation we will print your business logo on the back of every child’s T-shirt, and provide space to hang your banner at the event.
