OK Guys and Gals, Its time again to have the 3rd annual Fishing Flea Market at the Lake Shore Vol. Fire Dept in Pasadena, Md. It will again be on the first Saturday in March. The date is March 1, 2014. The Fire Dept has agreed to keep the table price at $10 per table. Snaggedline will again be given a free table and I will be in touch with the Snaggedline leadership about this. We have already had calls about the flea mkt from reterning vendors. I have discovered that we will be in competition with the Kayak demo's at BassPro again. The first year I put on the Kayak demo at BassPro I didn't have it on the same weekend and now there are outside influences contributing to this that are out of my control. Regardless, We will still have the flea market and I think the Kayak Demo takes maybe 2-4 volunteers and we didn't have a loss of help as a result of the same thing last year. WE WILL NOT BE PLACING TABLES IN THE ENGINE BAY as we did last year. That didn't work!!! We will again be doing this as a fundraiser for the MD HOW chapter. There is a change there as well. The Fire Dept wants to split their profits with HOW and a Pasadena organization that many of you are aware of or know of... We will be supporting the Pasadena Sport Fishing Group's KIDS FISHING DERBY'S. The Fire Dept. wants to support a local charity as well as supporting our wounded warriors through the MD HOW group. The PSG has held several Kids fishing derby's and supply's each child with a fishing rod and reel and one on one help. I have attended one of these events and it really hits you in the heart to see a 3 yr old child who normally wouldn't have the means or funds to take a kid fishing. How could I not agree to that. I hope you all agree and continue to support this worthwhile event. I will be seeking volunteers from MD HOW to help advertise. I personally put in over 100 hours going to various Fishing Swap meets prior to our event. The other reason behind supporting the PSG group is that their membership is MANY!!! They can help promote this event even more. I will for the first time be selling stuff and chilling for the first time. I'm planning on Tying some fly's and getting rid of all of the CRAP I have amassed over the years... Please reserve your spaces early as I anticipate them filling up early. The Fire Dept. committee has agreed to give free spaces to any vendors that were in the engine bay last year to help recoup the loss and disaster that happened last year. They will also be looking for sponsors and donors for raffle items different from last years raffle. We will be having raffle tix printed commercially and will be asking everyone to help sell them. The profits will come from all raffle's I think door donation's which will remain the same as last year as of now... It may go up by $1. It was $2 last year and the fire dept. wants to raise it a bit. Hoping that Overboard Rods and a few other folks would be willing to help out with a few NICE ITEMS to raffle. This is not in conjunction with the vendor donated raffles that we do every 30 miinutes. We will also need volunteers to sit at the door and sell tix and collect door fee's with a member of the fire dept. I will be posting a meeting in the next couple months or so.
Thanks everyone.
