‘Kids4reel’ has actively partnered with local Schools that offer fishing programs.
As an example, we support Eight Flagler County schools with some equipment such as rods/reels, bait provided by our ‘Fishbites’ sponsor and continuous coaching from our ‘kids4reel’ team of Flagler Sportfishing Club member volunteers at their monthly outings.
In addition to fishing skills and techniques, our local youth learn about marine science, safety, conservation and fishing regulations.
Youth/teen school programs such as these positively Influence social/emotional learning (SEL) skills.
“The Flagler Sportfishing Club ‘kids4reel’ team have been paramount to the success of our fishing club program at Bunnell Elementary. Their financial, equipment and human support provided have allowed hundreds of students to experience the joy of fishing and the outdoors.”
