Just wanted to thank you for a great fishing outing last Saturday. It was the second time attending for my 5 1/2 year old son, who loves to fish, but rarely gets the chance. It was great to see all the volunteers work so well together. Clearly alot of behind the scenes planning goes into making this such a successful and memorable event.
Much appreciated,
Carol (and Kevin) G.

Thank you for a fantastic day. The kids really enjoyed this. I thought I would also share a story. On Saturday my kids, Tess (5) and Gavin (6), came prepared to fish with their own poles at Sgt. Tommy's event. However, they also received additional poles courtesy of Sgt. Tommy. Later on Saturday we were at Crystal lake Beach enjoying the sunshine and fishing later in the afternoon while celebrating Father's Day with the kids Grandfather. My son Gavin came with his pole as well as Sgt Tommy's. A little boy, Danny, was also at the beach with his Grandmother. His Grandmother asked where we got the fishing poles and I proceeded to tell her of the event earlier that morning. I told my son that Sgt. Tommy would like it if he passed along his pole to another kid that hadn't fished before. My son gave Danny the pole and a tin of worms and proceeded to show him how to fish. Needless to say they both caught fish and Danny had a great time. What a great concept. Sgt. Tommy would be proud. See you again next year.
Thanks again,
Marc P.
