Apartment Franklin County Ohio
The Central Ohio Chapter of Fishing Has No Boundaries held a fishing event at Hoover Reservoir on June 5, 2010. The Buckeye Boat Club, a private club located on the east side of the reservoir, hosted the event. Hoover Reservoir is located in Delaware and Franklin Counties, approximately 10 miles northeast of downtown Columbus, Ohio. Forty-one disabled adults and children participated. Despite sometimes heavy rain and the occasional rumble of thunder, all activities went on as planned.
Participants, accompanied by assistants and volunteers, were able to fish from the shore or board pontoon boats and venture out onto the reservoir. Hours of planning and preparation were required to assure that the day-long event went smoothly. Boat owners served as volunteer captains. Additional volunteers included boat club members, FHNB organizers, and Boy Scouts. These volunteers handled registration, boat assignments, meal service, and set-up. Thanks to the generosity of corporate sponsors and donations from private individuals, participants enjoyed breakfast, lunch, shirts, hats, bait, and goodie bags that contained tackle boxes filled with hooks, weights, lures, and more.
