Default Special Olympics fishing event

I participated in the Special Olympics fishing event Saturday out of Middle River. I have done this in years past and it is a great time. 40 Special Olympians with varying handicaps and their parents come to the event and are treated to breakfast, fishing trip (perch fishing mostly) and then a cook out and the awards ceremony. Had 20 or 21 boats to take them all out including "Rockin Robin" and family all the way from Annapolis. Most fish were 6" perch but these guys don't care how big it is, they just love being out and taking a boat ride. Pic's attached.

Well done - might not be a big deal to those of us who get to boat / fish a lot but giving others a day on the water is huge to others.

Please let me know the next time this event is held. I would love to volunteer boat to take families out and/or any monetary or labor that would be needed to pull off such a event. Had the kids out this weekend in the bay down the ocean hon for the kids classic benefitting the wish a fish foundation between cast netting spot to bring back to the bay for live lining and trying to catch the elusive yellowfin tuna

Tawn,
That must have been after more than a few Crown Royals at the Harbor Shack in Rock Hall.
