| Why Not Fishing in Schools! |
| Join Family Tyes and 30 other elementary/middle/high schools in 5 states that are teaching students the life-long gifts of fishing. Family Tyes provides schools with a complete curriculum, equipment package and club structure that helps teachers connect all students to life-long positive alternatives to be shared with family and friends forever. Multi-disciplinary components stress roles that fisherman must play in environmental stewardship and conservation. Family Tyes school fishing activities promote educational processes, family values, teamwork, volunteerism, community involvement and fun for everyone. This hands- on seminar demonstrates how and why fishing can make a difference. |
