Looking For A Few Good Men
I have a friend who works with underprivileged kids. We have been floating around the idea of getting a doz kids or so out on the ice. We could do a little Jr Derby so to speak with prizes for all kids of course. He has asked me if i might be able to find a few good men who would like to come out and get involved with this. We would pair you up with a kid and have a blast I am sure. It would be a day event with all the fixings Hot choc , food ect. I may have someone willing to bring out a dog sled and give the kids a ride or two. If you are willing to get involved in a great event for all the right reasons feel free to post here. Thank you..

It will take a few weeks to get it together. The first step was finding guys to come out. Once I have a group of fella's we will put it in gear. Thank you guys for offering your time.

Jeff, I'd be willing to help out for sure. It would be cool if we could get this at Lake Sundance...lots of fish to catch and not to far to go. Just my suggestion.

That is a great idea. Lots of perch in there. First and most important is getting the kids on top of fish for sure. Will talk to Sundancefisher and see what we can arrange. My partner is going to get CJ involved as well guess he has a friend there. We could do it as a A/O Kids day or something. As long as we wouldn't be step'n over any lines Might have to get someone with some pull around here to give us the go ahead for that.

Lake Sundance would be cool, I would love to bring home some perch, and help a good cause. I was one of those kids, and believe me I remember every minute of those occasions!

kids fishing
I will set up a 14'x21' fully enclosed tarp shelter and keep a fire in two 5 gallon wood stoves in the shelter. If that would be what you could use let me know. If we could set up where the fish are the kids would love it I am sure.

Being up in the Peace Country this would be a little too far away for me, but hats off to you for putting something like this together. Getting kids into the outdoors can make a big difference in their lives, not to mention our sport!

If you cant manage to do it at Lake Sundance, Enchant pond is swarming with perch, not really big but very plentiful. And the odd trout too. You could probably just reach in and grab some there are so many. Unless Keljays wife is there, then they all dissapear
