For the last 2 years we have been working like crazy every spare moment we have on starting the Hooked On Fishing Park in East Peoria. This summer we officially opened the park and through quite a bit of volunteer coordination we taught more than 800 children, seniors, and people with special needs how to fish!!! Our goal is to get the entire community involved in this project. Our first event is set for February 6th, 2010 at WeaverRidge. Right now we have 19 out of the 25 tables sold already, but still have room for 6 more. Please contact me at 309-303-5691 or the contact listed on the flyer below if you would like to attend or help out at the park in any way shape or form.

Here is a link to some improvements we have made at the park. Improvement Photos
We are hoping to be able to raise enough money to help cover operating expenses for 2010 since we are trying to teach folks how to fish free of charge. Also if anyone would like to come down and check out the new fishing park, please call me up anytime and I would be honored to show you around!
