I'm also looking for one dedicated volunteer who can take posters of the event to all the community centres in Richmond and businesses in Steveston, and ask them to put it up until July 14th. Please email me if interested. info@fishingwithrod.com.

I've been getting a few responses from those who wish to help out at the event, which is great. Still need a couple more bodies for writing licences. You don't have to do it throughout the event, you can help out for that for an hour, then help out with the kids fishing, etc.

DFO Steveston has confirmed their attendance once again for this year's event, which is fantastic. RCMP will also be bringing their patrol boat to the pier again.

Just over two weeks until the event! Mark it in your calendar, bring your kids.

O.W.L. (Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation Society) which takes care of injured birds of prey in Delta, has just confirmed that they will be at our event once again! Their support is really appreciated and I think it's important to have their presence. There should be lots of bird awareness in recreational fishing as our actions have a direct impact on these birds. I've requested for a bald eagle this year since we've always had owls at previous events, so it'll be exciting to see what shows up.

Rodney,

I'll be there for sure. I may have 2 kids in tow (unless I can find a sitter), but i'll be there.

See you at set up.

Dave.

Rod i will drag my wife along and she will see if she can find a few more helpers.

Seymour Salmon Society from North Vancouver will return to the event again this year with their display of live juvenile coho salmon and background information on Seymour River!

[chris gadsden]

I will come down after the Chilliwack Vedder River Cleanup Society's second river cleanup for 2012 so you can buy me supper at Sockeye City. Maybe George and Cathy may come too for our annual ghost shrimp adventure

[Rodney]

Bump.

Hey all! 

This is a great event, but it's ONLY made great through volunteer efforts.  We NEED people to step up and help.   Don't worry about not knowing what to do...  You can always work with someone who's "been there, done that" to learn the ropes while you are helping others. 

If you can't make it on the day, there are things you can do ahead of time to help out too!  Step up.  Let's show the world that the angling community can be strong, united and community oriented and not divided, selfish, and in our own solitude!

Who's in?

I will come right after our cleanup on the Chilliwack Vedder but will most likely be all over but can help with take down.
Lets hope the sun continues to shine for both events.
