The Winter 2020 issue of the P.L.A.Y. -- PA League of Angling Youth newsletter from the Fish and Boat Commission highlights the impact and benefit of being a youth mentor for fishing, boating and conservation.
What was your first experience on Pennsylvania waters? Was it:
-- A hike along one of Pennsylvania’s 85,000 miles of streams and rivers?
-- A canoe trip on one of Pennsylvania’s 4,000 inland lakes?
-- Hearing frogs sing after a summer rain?
-- Catching your first fish?
-- Feeling pride while planting trees along a streambank?
Behind each experience is the reflection of your mentors. Mentors help you learn and guide you through each experience.
Fishing and boating mentors introduce others to the importance of conservation.
Being a mentor does not require you to be older, wiser or have years of experience. This PLAY issue introduces you to mentoring.
Becoming a mentor provides an opportunity to:
-- Help others connect to Pennsylvania waters through activities;
-- Reflect and share experiences and skills;
-- Learn something new;
-- Share the responsibility of aquatic resource protection and enhancement; and
-- Make a difference and have fun doing it.
