“We really never tried to go fishing before, we thought it was too hard. It was fun for my son and parents!” – Parent of Participant, Prineville Reservoir
” I really enjoyed the fishing stories the children were encouraged to talk about, whether they could vocalize using words or could just make noises. It was very special. Also thoroughly enjoyed our boat captain. He’s so kind and loves hearing all about my child’s life accomplishments and the challenges she’s overcame. He is inspiring and such a joy to spend the day with. He says “this boat is her for the day, you do what you want on your boat”, It was amazing!!! – Parent of Participant, Prineville Reservoir
