CAST 4 Kids needs Boater Volunteers for Delta Event

My name is Anthony Lee with CAST 4 Kids. I am one of the program coordinators and I am looking for some volunteer boaters for our May 31st, 2014 event. Last year we were short a dozen boaters and I need all the help I could get. I would like to gain at least 35-40 boaters.

If you have a Bass Boat, Runabout, Pontoon, or any boat that can be used for fishing, we would really like your help. If you know someone who may be interested, please let me know.

***First 5 boaters to sign up will get 3 packs of Trokar Hooks***

Who: Cast 4 Kids (Children with disabilities varying from Autism, ADHD, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome and Asbergers.) We expect 40 - 50 children this year.
What: We are taking children out for an experience they may never come across in the future. We are all fortunate to be healthy or relatively healthy and be able to fish. Why not pay it forward to someone that may never experience such a thrill. We will have the Fire Department there to assist in backing you in the water and parking.
Where: Brannan Island Recreation Area
When: May 31st 2014 at 8am, please show up a little earlier.
Cost: Free, launching, parking and meals are included. Children have been provided tackle by Plano, Eagle Claw, Wright and McGill.


Volunteer Boater Registration could be found here:

If you have any questions please email me at lee.anthonyd@gmail.com or call me directly at (408) 500-2018.

I have volunteered for many events such as started the San Jose State University Bass Fishing Team, Coaching High School Fishing Teams, 7 CAST 4 Kids events, Christian Bass Angler Fellowship and CAST has been the best and most rewarding experience by far.

I really appreciate your time in reading this.

I'm in. This will be my 5th CAST event. Great experience and I urge anyone who can to help out. Catching fish is secondary, these kids just love to be out on the boat and doing something fun.

Thanks Norval....and thank you to everyone that made this even possible.

I think this is going to be bigger than ever next year. I will post up pictures soon.

Again thank you for donating the Saveface mask, Mike Coeilho was really happy.

Ed and Mark won the bulk oil provided by Boatmasters in livermore.
