Ken Fisher Kids Fund falls short in 2007, s we will carry forward to 2008 with hopes to manage more worthy gifts to underprivileged kids in Grimsby

Thanks to the members of the Strait Line Anglers that have contributed money and product to the Ken Fisher Kids Fishing Fund.2007 we managed to put together $192, far short of the $600 mark in 2006. It was decided that the money would be carried forward into 2008 with intensions to making an equivalent contribution as we did in 2006.

 In 2006, 60 kids in Grimsby that may not have gotten something under the Christmas Tree will find access to a life long past time of fishing. The Grimsby Benevolent Fund (GBF) is the distribution source for our contribution.
