This e-mail is to say congratulations and thanks for your part in the "Fishing Kids" event at Silver Lake in Everett today. I took my grandson, my neighbor and his daughter to this event for the first time today. We can not say enough good things about it. The kids had a great time and caught their fish in a first class experience. The volunteers were so good, and patient with all the kids, and they were good teachers of the sport and the environment. No hooks, line, or packaging were left on the ground. Hats off to these volunteers and ALL of you many great sponsors. Pre-registration and assigned times is terrific and makes for a great kids event. Thanks.
