What
is C.A.S.T. for Kids
C.A.S.T. for Kids is a one day outdoor fishing event
that provides disabled and special needs children an
opportunity to learn to fish. For many of the children,
this is the first opportunity to fish because of
limitations caused by their disability.
C.A.S.T. for Kids is steered toward youth age 6 to 18,
with little or no fishing experience. Parents and
guardians are encouraged to attend the event with their
children in order to provide future opportunities for
their children. Children are matched up with expert
anglers from the BASS Federation and/or other fishing or
service organizations who will take them on boats and
teach them the basics of fishing, safety, and fishing
ethics.
C.A.S.T. for Kids is not only fun for the participants
but to all those who volunteer their time for the event.
Kids learn to enjoy the outdoors and fishing while
volunteers learn a valuable lesson about living with a
disability and other limitations.
