Onslow Bay Saltwater Fishing Club Plays Santa
In a wonderful gesture of Christmas spirit, the Onslow Bay Salt Water Fishing Club has donated $5,000 of the proceeds from their king mackerel tournament to the Onslow Community Ministry Christmas Cheer program. The funds were used to purchase 126 bicycles and helmets for needy children in the area. The Onslow Bay King Mackerel Tournament is now in its sixth year and has made contributing to charities an annual tradition. Over the years recipients have included the Take a Kid Fishing Foundation, Miracle Meadows Therapeutic Riding Center which allows mentally impaired children to ride horses, Camp Sunshine which allows children with incurable diseases of various stages to enjoy summer camp, and several other great organizations too numerous to list. We like to commend the Onslow Bay Salt Water Fishing Club and encourage everyone to fish their outstanding king tournament next year. More on the donation is available from the Tideland News Online and the photo used here is courtesy of their website.
