Fishing Skipper's and Volunteers needed!
Skippers with fishing boats of all sizes and shore volunteers are needed to support Military Appreciation Day (MAD) - taking place at Southport Marina on 10 September.
For several years, your marina has been the proud host to Military Appreciation Day.Org, a non-profit, 100% volunteer run and donor funded annual event. Over the years we have hosted many hundreds of active duty troops and their families. Here's how it works:
Each year, as a way of giving One, Simple Thanks to our active duty men and women, troops from all branches of service are treated to a day of fishing - both inshore and offshore, by skippers and crews volunteering their boats and time to take our fine men and women out for the day. In the meantime, MAD provides family activities ashore and a large family style picnic rounds out the day when the fisherman return.
EVERYTHING is completely free to military and their families!
The number of troops MAD can accept is based on the number of boats to take them fishing and, with less than 2 months to the event, skippers with boats and volunteers are still needed.
Whether you have a large offshore capable boat or inshore skiff, you can say "Thanks" to our military men and women by taking them out for the day. Volunteers are also needed shore-side to take care of hosting families, set-up, feeding everyone, tear down, etc.
If you have questions, call Hank at 910 274-2400 or email: madsouthport@militaryappreciationday.org.
We hope you join us in supporting this great event!
