Children With Challenges Fishing Program

Children With Challenges is an adapted fishing program for children with disabilities. It offers new experiences and an outdoor activity that the children can do along with their families. The program offers assistance for the young anglers through volunteers and ends with a fun family cookout. This is an annual event and is offered several times in the spring.

(1) Wednesdays: May 8, 5-8PM and (2) May 15, 5-8PM

The program includes fishing combined with education in ecology and conservation. This program is spearheaded by Wayne Hunter, Yes U Can USA’s Fish & Wildlife Program Director & Engineering Consultant and founder of Children With Challenges.

Wayne has received two Governor Awards as an Outstanding Volunteer for community service and has also received a Jefferson Medal for Volunteerism from the U.S. Congress.
