‘Kids Fishing Day’ is a three-day educational fishing event held at Lake Park Harbor Marina and hosted by the West Palm Beach Fishing Club’s charitable affiliate, the Palm Beach County Fishing Foundation. Each year, hundreds of less fortunate, at-risk and special needs children from Palm Beach County experience what most of us take for granted, a day of boating and fishing on the ocean. Some of the featured topics include knot tying, casting lessons, angler ethics, cast netting and boating safety. In addition, Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) provides several Marine Biologists to teach the kids all about marine animals and their environments. The FWC also provides its Marine Touch Tank to give the kids a unique opportunity to directly interact with other marine animals including sea urchins, crabs, fish and lobsters. To date, over 13,000 kids have participated in this heartwarming community outreach event. The program is free of charge to those who participate and is made possible each year through the generosity of many sponsors and volunteers.
