We Need Your Help!
Calling All Volunteers!
The Mississippi Wildlife Federation will host Katfishin’ Kids on June 2, 2012 at Turcotte Lab off Highway 43 at the Ross Barnett Reservoir from 7 a.m. until 10:30 a.m.
We are in desperate need of volunteers! We need about 120+ volunteers to run this event properly. To date, it looks as if we will be considerably shorthanded. If you can help or know of a group who can, please contact mstarnes@mswf.org ASAP. Click here to see all volunteer opportunities. Volunteer hours are approximately 6:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.
I also need one more t-shirt sponsor in the amount of $600. Another company has agreed to pick up the other half. The Mississippi Wildlife Federation and other organizations run this event on a shoestring budget and t-shirts have always been sponsored. Without a t-shirt sponsor we will be unable to print event t-shirts for attendees.
Please keep in mind this is a FREE EVENT to teach our youth all about fishing.
