Our Mobile Kids’s Trout Pond was a big hit at the Expo Center in Flint yesterday. Over 100 kids on 100 rainbows. Everything went great. Pond didn’t leak at all (thanks to EPI for the new liner!), water arrived on time and cold, fish arrived on time with zero casualties (thanks Clayton!), the kids streamed in at a steady rate all day/evening. The best part this year was the trout bite lasted all day right up until we tore down.
We really got a huge push from Clayton Gilde, Ana Birdsell, Chuck Russo, and Bob Samuels for the hard labor, and it was hard labor at times and a long day. These guys were great and they made the event very smooth and fun. We laughed all day and then gutted out the tear down. So much thanks to all and I hope we didn’t burn you out. All other trout pond events are easy after this one.
A Thank you goes out to the Atlas Fire Department for delivering us fresh cold water for the Trout tank, great job fellas, this event couldn't happen without your generosity,..Thanks!
And a big thanks goes out to Safari Club International for having us back down there. Mike Dickerson and John Kupiak provided us with great hotel rooms and catered meals and the accommodations were fantastic.
Here are some memories made and a quick start for our next generation of outdoorsmen and outdoorswomen.
