We held our 4th Annual Cast Away Fishing Derby today, We had a less than usual turn out than normal but we didn’t let that damper our day. The fishing pond was a muddy mess but all the kids got to catch multiple fish. Special thanks to the MCI Employee Activities Committee for supplying us with food and fishing poles for the kids.

The Passport to Fishing program provides skills, techniques and information that allows any beginning angler to start fishing in their own community.
Passport to Fishing has been proven to be a successful youth education campaign. Straight forward, effective, inexpensive and FUN. The program consists of four stations where kids will learn a variety of skills from tying fishing knots and rigging a fishing pole to casting, fishing rules, fish habitat and handling fish and concludes with a fishing derby after all stations are completed.

We held our annual Fall Fish Fry yesterday despite the fact that it had been raining for the past several days and there was a 50% chance of rain in the forecast but as luck would have it it turned out to be a beautiful day. Thanks to everyone that showed up despite the weather and hope to see you at the next one.
