Pond Owners Making A Difference

to bring kids with an adult family member out to fish at their pond. The program works with pond owners in seven counties: Baldwin, Chilton, Hale, Jefferson, Mobile, Pike and Tallapoosa.

The pond must have good fishing, be near the school or organization, have a neat and clean appearance, provide bathroom facilities, and have an area for everyone to eat their lunch.
