THE FUN CONTINUES:
Sunday March 27, the annual FIDS KIDS FISHING EVENT will be held at the Guest Marina on Fisher Island. Once again the Fisher Island Club will partner with the school for this highly anticipated occasion.
This day gives the children an opportunity to have the adventure of fishing in a safe environment. At the same time volunteers will share their knowledge on techniques and environmental conservation. Children will receive a fishing pole and tackle box.
The school will benefit from the proceeds. We offer different levels of sponsorship for companies or individuals that are interested in participation. Tickets will be sold for $25 per person and will be available in advance for Fisher Island Day School Students. Please contact Kimberly Cacioppo kimberly@islandinsiders.com 786-302-5727 or Coach John Durango jdurango@fisherislanddayschool.org Participation is encouraged. This is an easy event to help with, and not a large commitment of time!!!
