SPORTSMEN HOST LARGEST CASTING KIDS EVENT IN STATE HISTORY!

Congratulations to our winners: Cub Scout Pack #330 Zachary Toews (7-10) Anna Olson (11-14) Cub Scout Pack #303 Taylor Olson (7-10) Robbie Wilson (11-14)

The St. Hubert event is on record as the single largest Casting Kids competition ever held by a single club in state history. Over 120 kids competed. Winners received medals and rods and reels; all participants received "tackle packs" donated by Exude Baits.

Since several youngsters tied at St. Hubert's, a "cast off" was held on 4/27 at the Chanhassen Fire Station to determine the winners.

2003 Date Set: Sat. March 8, Southview Chev
Hosted by Dakota County Bassmasters. Starts at noon following morning qualifying.

B.A.S.S. is dedicated to America's youth and to the future of bass fishing and its resources. And since kids are the future of this great sport, B.A.S.S. developed the BASSMASTER CastingKids program in 1991 and eventually joined hands with Chevy Trucks, CITGO, and other great sponsors to make it the most successful youth fishing program in the world. Open to young people in two age groups, 7-10 and 11-14, the goals of this competition are to involve America's youth in fishing and to foster in each participant an appreciation and concern for our outdoors. BASSMASTER CastingKids competitions are similar to the old NFL punt, pass, and kick events, except the challenge is to flip, pitch and cast. These are three very important skills everyone needs to know in order to catch fish. Scoring is based on a point system so the young angler with the most points wins! In only ten years of existence, the BASSMASTER CastingKids has reached over one million children and given away over $2,000,000 in cash, prizes, and scholarships. Through the CastingKids program, B.A.S.S. is able to uphold its commitment and dedication to youth and the future of bass fishing and its resources. B.A.S.S. is proud of the success of this program, and we know that you, too, will find it to be rewarding.
