Our annual Take Kids Fishing Day was a big success! A sunny day, over 30 building trade volunteers, families enjoying themselves, and a lot of smiles. A big thank you to all of our volunteers who not only showed up the day of the event, but did so much prep prior to the event- you are all awesome. And thank you to all of our community for continuing to show up and spend your morning with the building trades!
