ECE Fishing Club

My students need transportation and supplies and adults to teach them how to fish.

My Students

I am creating a fishing club at my school that will be for 6 girls in 5th grade. I chose to focus on girls because I want to help people develop a love for fishing who are typically underrepresented.

These girls will have the chance to become lifelong lovers of fishing.

I am excited to give them that chance. The girls who participate in this fishing club will walk away with the introductory knowledge and skills to begin fishing on their own. They will also have all the equipment necessary to catch fish.

My Project

Our goal with the Fishing Club is to provide access and interest to the lifelong activity of fishing to the students who are traditionally underrepresented in the activity. I believe that given the opportunity, girls can enjoy fishing just as much as anyone.

The sport of fishing needs more girls, and I hope to help the girls at ECE become fishing enthusiasts.

It is my hope that these girls will also develop increased self-esteem and school engagement, by being a part of a select group. I am very excited to be able to share my passion for fishing with the students that I work with daily.
