DISABLED VETERANS' FISHING DERBY
Every year in May the Marlboro Fish and Game holds its annual Disabled Vets'
Fishing Derby. We provided a day of fishing, food and soft drinks to over
175 veterans from veteran's hospitals from all over the state. We at the
Marlboro Fish and Game provide this day of enjoyment for the Vets with the help
of members and the donations from thankful people from the local area . We can
use all the help we can get. This derby is the only time a lot of these vets
get, to get out and enjoy the outdoors. It is a day of fulfillment for the vets
as well as the members who donate their time and efforts to make this day
possible. Call the Club at 485-9739 and ask for information on what you can do
to help the Veterans who gave so much. We are now receiving donations for next
years derby. Any amount will help. Thank you to those members of the Eagles, the
American Legion, the Italian American Vets, and the Members of the Division of
Fish and Wildlife who help make this day possible.
