New Jersey - Phys. Ed. Grants Initiative Available to Start School Fishing Ed. Programs

Physical Education Grants Initiative Available to Start School Fishing
Education Programs

For teachers interested in starting a fishing education program at
their school, the Future Fisherman Foundation, the American Association
for Leisure and Recreation, and the Recreational Boating and Fishing
Foundation are partnering to sponsor the Physical Education Grants
Initiative. These grants provide up to $5,000 to physical education
(PE) teachers to help establish a fishing and/or boating education
program in their school.

Grant recipients will attend a 3-day Physical Education Grants Training
Workshop. This workshop, including two travel days, will be held in
Utah July 18-22, 2005. Travel to and from the workshop will be included
in the grant award. Room and board will be covered by the Future
Fisherman Foundation. The grant is open to all K-12 PE teachers who are
members of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education,
Recreation and Dance. Applications for the 2005-06 school year are due
March 4, 2005. For more information on the PE grants and an
application, visit the Future Fisherman Foundation at
