I believe this great deed is contagious.  The Genesee Charter Boat Association is going to plan something similar.  Great job!  I will post on how it goes. 

 

My 3rd graders had their first "Worm Olympics" last week.  We conducted experiments to see who can collect the most bait in 30 minutes.  The use of mild dish soap and dollar store bucket/shovels was deemed the most productive and fun. Mr. Hammond got free bait for the weekend too!

 

A few years back, when I had 6th graders, we started our own bait business.  The students called it "Ghetto Worms"'- "tougher than your average worm" and we collected, packaged and sold the worms to local shops to fund a trip to Sea Breeze.

 

Keep up the great job with your club.  Larry "Henrybud"
