Free drinks and hot dogs will be provided for lunch. 

A parent or guardian must accompany you, and you must be wearing sunglasses or use ours.

Barbless hooks only.

Please bring worms for bait.

National Teen Anglers is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization that offers no-fee, ongoing, long-term recreation and education to America's middle- and high-school teens.

Teens can participate in tournaments held between chapters and states that culminate in a national tournament held in Florida.

Or they can just fish for the fun of it.
