Last night was an amazing opportunity to be a part of making Christmas a little more special for some of our local youth. These kids are amazing and so deserving. Each of them have amazing personalities, so polite, and positive despite the difficult circumstances and challenges some have endured, and of course they all share a true passion for fishing and being on the water. The majority of them had no idea why they were being brought to sodium fishing gear last night, some of the cover stories created by parents were hilarious. Thanks to some amazing community support from businesses and individuals the kids were able to have a funded private shopping spree at Sodium in addition to gift cards for Christmas Dinner. Each and every one of them were so grateful, repeatedly thanking everyone present.
It takes a village, thank you.
I’m proud of our community for always being there for kids.

If you’re interested in helping us make some kids Christmas very special this year, we could use the help. Last year was amazing to see the kids so excited. Some of the kids still talk about how much it meant to them, that people beleived in them and cared. That day created relationships and bonds with mentors. This year we have some very special kids we would like to help them with what they are passionate about, and getting them out of the house, off the electronics, spending quality time with family, building self confidence, and enjoying nature. Helping these kids means so much more than just getting to buy some new stuff, it could change their lives. For more information or if you or anyone you know are interested in helping send us a message.

We are so thankful for what our good friend Sam Peterson has done for us. Take a look at these amazing signs he has had made for us in order to help raise some fundraising to help us. Sam is a genuinely great guy with a huge heart. Sam wanted to help make it possible to get some more kids out. Sam wanted to help put smiles on kids faces and understands the importance of spending time with them and providing a positive experience with those that care for them. Sam lost his daughter Samantha to Cystic Fibrosis at a young age and wanted to make a difference in other’s lives in her memory. Thank you again Sam, we are very grateful. We are putting together a sponsorship opportunity of different levels and probably a raffle for the signs. In the meantime if anyone is interested in a sign along with a letter of appreciation for supporting our program please reach out.

As Emma’s School Resource Officer I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to get to know her. She is truly an amazing person and brightens everyone’s day she comes in contact with. During our conversations she has more than once mentioned the behavior specialist Marli Dilocker and School Counselor Kerry Krantz from her primary school and how much they positively impacted her life. Emma also shared with me how much she loved fishing. That’s all I needed to hear, Marli and Kerry absolutely loved the idea and Captain Mitch Roe with Mullet Key Outfitters was excited to help out. Emma was all smiles about getting to hang out with Marli and Kerry and enjoy a day on the water just for her. She got to catch a ton of Grunts . Gag Grouper, and a Spanish Mackerel all while Captain Mitch kept her entertained with corny dad jokes. She wasn’t to excited about touching the fish at first but got over it. I think her favorite part was lunch on Shell Island. Thank you Scott Lambo and Brittaney with the Crystal River subway for making that happen. When you go eat there tell them how awesome they are.
We wrapped it up with ice cream at the dock.
Everyone agreed, watching Emma smiling and enjoying the day was a wonderful experience.

I know it’s not fishing related but this is to awesome not to share. Our friend Frankie and his mom Keri got the opportunity to see wolves up close and personal. I can’t stop smiling at the pictures of my friend Frankie and his contagious smiles. Thank you Keri for letting us share these.

Operation “Santa Loves Fishing Too” was a success for sure. The kids were really appreciative. It was awesome to see their enthusiasm about getting some sweet new fishing gear. One actually went fishing with his new stuff last night, another one’s teacher told me he was telling them about it today and still excited.
The show of support for these guys was so impressive and I know they were grateful for that too. Thank you to everyone who made this possible.
