I wasn't going to share this
« on: April 17, 2012, 07:21:50 PM »
I am not one to toot my horn on stuff like this. But I thought about this for the last few weeks and decided that this was worthwhile to share. Permission was granted to use the photos.

I was approached by this guy last year asking for a donation. Since the economy has really sucked for a while I have backed off sponsoring any tournaments and have taken a pretty dim view of freebies. I really never see any direct benefit back from this stuff. {no-one has ever said hey I won a lure at this tournament and I caught this on it thanks for the donation)

This guy was different. He struck me as very genuine. I said what a great idea. He's making a difference in kids today.

Less drugs, video games, gangs and violence. More fun. Way cool. Hat's off to David and the kids!

Featured on the local news.

Here's some pics of the stuff they did.

I liked it...   a way to spur the imagination
however...  i  think more colors of paint would have been nice.
