What can be said about this AWESOME activity that happens every year !!! Mandy starts talking about it, in January , and I always say, Shea Fishing happens in the same month as, your birthday ,That helps her to at least grasp when it happens. :) As the months go on, she looks at her pictures from years previous , and happily tells me " ITS ALMOST HERE MOM" !!!! For those who don't live close, Shea Fishing is put on every year, by a gentleman here in town who owns a rock and gravel business. on his property he has a HUGE Pond that he stocks every year and he welcomes the Special Needs Kids back. he hosts a BIG hot dog lunch for them , Mandy LOVES that too !!! There are Volunteer "Fishing Buddies" 1 for every kid, they assist the kids in baiting hooks, casting lines and even reeling in their catches.
The excitement each one shows in their own way is PRICELESS ! below are just a few pictures I was able to take after I arrived.
Mandy's fishing buddy this year was Manuel,
