Hey Everybody,

We have a week to go and really need your help because our kids are failing in school, need positive activities (fellowship), role models and a place where they can be feel like someone really cares about them.

Wont you come out or even sponsor a child (k-12) for $22.50. the participant will receive a t-shirt, lunch and fellowship. I can deliver your ticket(s) or you may go online at www.orionskids.org.

Thanks for your help.

No fishing till next week.(I haven't fished for about a month) :( I am on a study regiment but after friday its on. I am glad the event was posted on this site. I am always looking to get my boy fishing and that would have been a great wayto do so. If anyone has any pictures of the event please post.

Greetings Fisher "GO4EM",

Sorry you could not make it out with your son. We had a great time. Once I figureout how to upload the pictures I will. It was so cold in the AM, but that didn't stop us! We learned alot about fishing like what you can and cannot eat or touch -- God is Amazing!Thanks to Tom, we faired well. I think Mackerel is my favorite fish to eat now. Next year Our event should be in October.

Thanks for your support.
