JERRY HARMAN, LEAD MENTOR
Kimberling City, Missouri
My project will be awesome because I live in an area of the United States that is very rural and can serve these foster children in a much-needed way. My region in southwest Missouri is rich with fishery resources.
I live on Table Rock Lake. Table Rock Lake is one of the premier bass lakes in the nation. It has 52,000 surface acres and over 850 miles of shoreline. Its waters are pristine, clean, and clear. We are also home to local trout fisheries such as, Lake Taneycomo, Crane Creek, Roaring River.

Avid outdoorsman, that enjoys all sports and outdoor activities. I started fly fishing when I was 16 after being introduced to it by my future father-in-law. I have helped with other youth groups, been a scout leader, and am excited about the opportunity to teach/introduce kids to this thrilling, life long sport of fly fishing
