LVH FC CLUB RECOGNITION

COMMUNITY SERVICE AWARD           (24 May 2007)

 

The Lincoln County School District, under the direction of Superintendent, Mr. Tom Rinearson, held their 2007 Retirement & Recognition Dessert at the Embarcadero Resort in Newport, OR. This evening ceremony was attended by over 200 Teachers & Administrators. It’s primary focus was to recognize the many contributions made by the current & retiring Teachers of the Lincoln County School District.

 

As a part of this Grand Event, 8 County Volunteer Organizations were recognized & presented with Community Service Awards, for the contributions they have made to support & enhance the challenging work being accomplished by the Outstanding Teachers who comprise the District Teaching Staff.

 

The Longview Hills Fishing Club was honored to be one of the organizations recognized for the work it has done in the Newport Middle School, under the guidance of the Oregon Department of Fish & Wild Life, by presenting a 7 session Responsible Angler Program to the EBD Students of that school. This is the direct result of the trust & support extended to us by Mrs. Eckleman, Newport Middle School Principal & Mr. Malcolm Koch, the Teacher with primary responsibility for these students.

 

Our award was received on behalf of the Club, by Brian Hudson (Lead Instructor) who has provided outstanding leadership for our 7 Member Instructor Team. Brian & his fellow Aquatic Angler Instructors are to be commended for their efforts, which resulted in making this 1^st time effort so beneficial to the students of the Newport Middle School. As an aside, Mr. Rinearson, a angler in his own right, complimented us by extending an invitation to have us bring the Responsible Angler Program back to the Class Room again next year.  

 

It is appropriate to note, that our Instructor Teams are comprised of various members who have cross club affiliations with the North West Steelheaders & Central Coast Fly Fishers. This exemplifies the very best utilization of our Coastal Fishing Club Resources to support the vital work being accomplished by the Oregon Department of Fish & Wild Life.  

 

Suffice to say, we are honored by this award recognition & very proud to stand with our colleagues who comprise the 3 Coastal Fishing Clubs within the Local ODFW Jurisdiction.
