Hi there Dan,

You have always gone out of your way for the kids on or off your program. I heard Davis was going to axe funds for the urban fishing program fish stockings. Looks like you independents are the few organizations that the kids can look up to and learn.

You've kept the faith with those kids. We have lots of guys on these boards willing to give time and expertiese to the good of the sport and the kids,

Much Appreciation to all who give selflessly,

JapanRon

That is why I started my foundation because the state was planning to cancel all the inner-city fishing programs. Please show up if you can I can use all the help I get.

Last Saturday was the rain record for Los Angeles,CA. We had about 225 kids show up in the pouring rain. It was still worth it. My next kids event is June 7th.

Thanks,

Dan Hernandez
