For the past three years, parents and children around Pikeville have marked their calendars for the Fishing with Kids event held at the Pikeville Pond. The event, which gives each child a free fishing pole, has grown more than anyone expected. The first year we had 35 kids. It's grown throughout the years. Last year we had 647 kids. It was 45 degrees and raining. So it was really, it's an amazing event. It really is. But event founder Chad Webb says with the June 2nd event less than a month away they are in desperate need of fishing pole donations. Right now we have about 150 poles. I'm expecting 700 plus kids. So we're at a deficit of about 550. And he's asking anyone who can to consider purchasing a fishing pole to be given to a child. I know, you know, the economy is not what it used to be and I know it's tough. But you know, for the price of a pack of cigarettes or a value meal in McDonald's you can buy something that may affect somebody's whole life forever. Webb says the feedback that he's gotten from past Fishing with Kids events keeps him and his group of volunteers motivated to keep the event going from year to year. I get a lot of pictures of kids with their fishing poles that they've got prior in years prior. A lot of good stories about how it's helped kids through hard times or how they were going down the wrong road and now all they do is fish all the time. I mean it's just, it's amazing. It's daily I get something. The 2018 Fishing with Kids event will be held from 4-7pm at the Pikeville Pond. Anyone wishing to donate fishing poles for the event can drop them off at Sacred Mountain Tattoo in Coal Run Village. In Coal Run, I'm Shannon Deskins, EKB News.
