Shane Pinard Future Fisherman Foundation

Overview
Our foundation was started in 2020 after my son Shane was killed in a car accident on the way to his high school graduation party. It was his dream to start a fishing program in the area after college since there wasn't any kind of program for fishing in the area. Fishing club is open to all kids grades K-12 and all events are free to the kids. Our club meets monthly for fishing trips, ice fishing events, field trips to fish hatcheries and indoor classes when the weather is bad. The kids also get a monthly newsletter sent to them. we also host a yearly walleye tournament out on Oneida lake every May.
