Big thanks go out to GrandpaD and Adam Eakle for helping us make it possible to bring the Boys and Girls Club of Salt Lake to the Doug Miller Tribute Party at Rockport on February 4th!

The UWC wanted to have the opportunity to expose some children to ice fishing and GrandpaD and Adam were kind enough to allow us to bring these kids along and expose them to something that they may have never had the opportunity to experience before.

The future of outdoor sporting depends on the rising generations and we are so excited to have the opportunity to take 40 kids out for their first ice fishing trip! We are excited to give these kids the opportunity to try something new, enrich their lives and share our passion for the outdoors with them, but we need help!

We are currently looking for volunteers as well as donors for this event and are relying on our community of friends and family to make this a once in a lifetime experience for these great kids.

We are looking for the following:

-Ice fishing gear. Rods, reels, lures , tents, buckets, camp chairs, fish finders and everything in between.

-$Money$. We don’t need a ton of money, but won’t turn down a dime. All funds will be earmarked specifically for this event and future youth events. No amount is too small and will go a long way! (see link below ***)

-Clothing. Any and all kids warm weather clothing is needed. We’d like to see this event several hundred strong in years to come, so a surplus of toasty winter clothes will be an awesome asset! But we are currently in need of boots, pants, coats, gloves and hats for the kids to wear.

-Volunteers. We will need adults who know what they are doing to show these kids the ropes. If you’ve got the time, we’ve got the kids!

-Pass it on! Please let your friends, relatives and neighbors (Even if relatives and neighbors aren’t actually “friends ) know of what we are doing. Please post this on your facebook and other social networks, feel free to put my information and the UWC facebook link on there.
