YMCA fishing tournament - awards ceremony at the Pier 60 Pavilion
On April 24, 2010, the YMCA Kid’s Fishing Rodeo was a fun day of catch and release fishing for ages 5-12 at Pier 60, Clearwater Beach. Presented by the YMCA of the Suncoast, with the help of a great group of sponsors, children had the opportunity to fish in a non-competitive environment. Check-in began at 8 a.m. at the Pier 60 Pavilion. Each child received a new rod and reel, tackle box, a t-shirt and lunch for a donation of $10.00. Scholarship recipients were able to fish for free! An awards luncheon was held at the Pavilion from 11 a.m. – Noon.
