NATIONAL FISHING & BOATING WEEK CELEBRATES 30th ANNIVERSARYThere are tens of thousands of places to fish and boat in the U.S. - and for the 30th Anniversary of National Fishing and Boating Week (June 6-14), the Recreational Boating and Fishing Foundation (RBFF) is launching an online movement that encourages kids and their families to find one. And for those who might not know a bass from a trout to even the most skilled anglers, RBFF has the ultimate online fishing and boating resource, www.TakeMeFishing.org, where site visitors can learn everything they need to know to plan a day on the water. Visitors may also be eligible to win daily prizes and a boat when they play the new interactive game, "Catch A Boat."
Since its 2005 reauthorization, RBFF has played a critical role in introducing more than 500,000 youth and newcomers to fishing and boating while raising more than $6 million for state conservation efforts. Beginning with National Fishing and Boating Week, RBFF is hoping to see families across the country get involved.
