Hello from Topsail Beach!
A message from Surf City Ocean Pier.
Fishing for something to do with your children? This event is
scheduled for Saturday, July 4, 2009 starting at 10 am and is over at
2 pm with the awards ceremony at 2:30pm. Lunch will be provided to all
of the registered youngsters. There will be games galore and awards
too . The way to win is to just show up. This event is free of charge
to all children ages 0-16 who participate and their adult assistant.
This event will expose youngsters under the age of 16 to the
excitement of fishing in a fun , educational and safe, family oriented
environment. Now there is nothing fishy about any of that.
We are going to attempt to try something a little different this year
by having a Children’s Fishing Competition and Celebration.
Our mission is to Educate, Protect/Preserve, and Enhance our
environment and love of fishing.
Educate our junior anglers on just how fragile our waters and sea life
are through educational signs and educating by example. The Choices we
make today can impact generations to come.
Protect/Preserve by making catch and release a religion, not just a
practice and returning all unwanted fish back to the water alive
including sharks and skates. Each sea creature has a purpose to its
environment and insuring its species’ survival in the circle of life
is essential. By using bronze hooks and other methods to reduce damage
to fish and all other sea creatures, anglers can help ensure their
survival.
Enhance our environment through cleanups and beach renourishments in
addition to working with other environmental and marine life groups to
address pollution and other issues that impact our fish and waters.
As is true with so many volunteer events we are looking for Sponsors.
Donations of merchandise and or money is always appreciated. We would
like to be able to offer all our youngsters who participate a prize
and our winners Savings bonds so that they might be able to use it for
their future education. Your contribution will help ensure the success
of our endeavor so that we might continue offering this wonderful fun
day to all the children visiting and from our community. Your support
will be greatly appreciated. Volunteers will also be needed to
supervise about, answer questions, cut bait, teach fishing basics such
as casting, knot tying and fish identification.
If you feel that you can help us in our mission please contact me. I
can be reached via phone at the Surf City Ocean Pier at (910) 328-3521
or via e-mail at pier_wi...@yahoo.com.
Thanks
Johnny
