VIP Fishing
Donation protected
3 years ago I got my first pair of glasses. My eyesight was really bad and starting to get worse. It was very shocking when I first put them on. The only word I can possibly say is, “WOW”!!! Everything was BEAUTIFUL. I could see the leaves on trees, instead of just one green BLOB......before glasses, words looked like fuzzy black lines. I was having trouble doing my schoolwork, which was a requirement to go fishing, so I missed a whole bunch of days that I could’ve been on the water.
If I were to completely lose my vision, I feel I should still do what I love. Fishing might be a little harder but it would be worth it. I think a visually impaired child (VIP) should have the ability to be outdoors with a little bit of guidance from family or a friend.......
This is why I am hosting an event where we pair a sighted angler (guide) with an unsighted angler (VIP). This way the event is safe for the kids and they can experience something new. The guides and VIPs will have a lot of fun fishing together! We know the guides will have a rewarding time while helping with the safety of the kids. As a guide, you will have the opportunity to assist the kids with simple tasks related to fishing: baiting the hook, casting the line, removing fish from hooks, measuring and photographing the catch. Just make sure the kids have a great time!!!
With a simple Google search, it seemed to me that visually impaired people have been forgotten. At least, when it comes to outside activities. I don’t see why that can’t change, it would make me feel sad if I couldn’t do the things I love, like play outside with my dog, explore, and fish.
I hope we can count on you to help make a memorable day reality while bringing blessings to your own life as well. Remember, ECHAL (Everyone Can Help A Little)!
