5 th ANNUAL VETERANS AND KID’S WISH’N TO GO FISH’N By Pam Teel

Last year organizers combined the Play HOOK-e Take a Veteran Fishing Day with the Kid’s Wish’n to go Fish’n program. The Veterans really enjoyed the day of fishing and being there, hands on, to help youngsters learn to fish during the event. Veterans and children, with disabilities and other special needs, are welcome to register for the 5th Annual Kid’s Wish’n to go Fish’n and Play HOOK-e Take a Veteran Fishing Day at Ponderosa Estates Farm in Millstone Township. Don Marantz, Event Chairman, Vito Cardinale of Cardinale Enterpris- es, and Randy Johnson, of Laurita Winery, always make this a fun event for children with disabilities and those with other special needs. The event includes a fun day of fishing for children, disabled veterans, and active-duty military from Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst. It’s being held this year on Saturday, August 21st (9:00 a.m. - till 2:00 p.m.) The goal of the fishing day for all involved is to feel the health benefits of getting in touch with na- ture, and to help limit PTSD symptoms, while making good memories with friends and family. Attendees and their guests are invited to this, catch and release, fishing event at Lake Julianna, and then afterwards, they get to enjoy a free Barbeque, complete with hamburgers and hotdogs, soft drinks, pizza, ice cream, and other goodies. Admission is free, but registration is mandatory through EventBrite>>Play HOOK-e.
