Solitude and Fishiding Design Habitat Projects with Young Fishing Teams

20th Feb 2013

Turn the T.V. off, let’s go fishing. That’s the rule Rosie DeAnnuntis  stands by and  school kids and the community are listening.

NAFT Boder Bass Team

The first Annual North Augusta Border Bass Invitational set for March 2nd 2013 is well underway, and Rosie won’t sleep until it’s all over. She explains “We are a team of folks from North Augusta Middle and High Schools, who promote the sport of fishing and resource conservation through education.”

North Augusta Fishing Team (NAFT) goals are to promote environmental conservation & efforts including Tournament Fishing and getting kids off couches, away from TV and video games, and getting them outside to fish and enjoying the great outdoors!  After all, our youth are our future!

When we heard about the tournament and what these kids find important, David Beasley and Matt Phillips from Solitude Lake Management and myself knew we could help. After numerous converations with Rosie, we found out that her group wants to get involved in giving back even more. Habitat projects involving youth are sprouting up all over the Nation and kids are learning the benefits  that come with the hard work.

Corporate America is also involved in habitat restoration projects from Coast to Coast. Power companies, manufacturing and chemical firms are all taking  proactive stands to improve our environment, learning from our mistakes of the past.
