An Event Designed for Young Anglers

Virginia B.A.S.S. Region 7, in cooperation with Virginia Beach Parks & Recreation, the Sheriff's Community Fund, and Dick's Sporting Goods, sponsored a youth fishing event this morning at Munden Point Park. Rods and bait were provided for the young anglers, and Region 7 personnel made sure everyone had all the hands-on help they needed to straighten out hang-ups, keep the hooks baited, and you-name-it.

When the fishing concluded, prizes were awarded to the youth. In addition, they, family members, and event workers all were treated to pizza and soft drinks.

From my perspective as photographer for the event, it seemed as though everyone in attendance had a delightful time.

Here are some random shots of the festivities that took place (click anywhere on this photo collage for a slightly enhanced version):
