Default We got them out there fishing, this morning BHFR

After weeks of organizing, it started to come together this morning. The crews fishing on Les and Steven's boat arrived about 0730. These young men are foster kids from as far east as DeFuniak Springs, plus Steven's son. They were happy.



Welder's crew, Zachery 17, Justin 17, Keishaun 15, Bill, their adult advisor and Les.



Steven, Bluffman's crew Ricky 17, Ty 15 Richard J 15, Joe Sims, their advisor and Steven's son, (in front with the blue PFD) and Steven



They got away on time. Now, Bobbie and I will take a break, 13 sandwiches, batches of cookies, soft drinks, water etc.

Come to the weigh in at GLYC after 3PM and see some smiling faces.

At present we have enough boats for tomorrow.

Thanks to all of you you made this possible.

TURN KIDS ONTO FISHING!

Tom

I met Les (welder ) and had a nice conversation about what he was doing and why. I know Tom ( bannatom)as well and know Tom is gaining personally more than what he is putting in as well. I can only imagine Scott (bluffman2)is right in the mix. My hat is off to all of you and to all who help. Doing something for someone else, expecting nothing back, only hoping you might make a smalldiffrence in someones life isto be commended. I am glad you guys also have some fun along the way.

Good luck to all of you this weekend!
