The Tadpole Fishing Party is held each year, on several
small private lakes near Waco, Texas. The property is
owned by Dr. Don Risinger, who generously allows the
Tadpole Foundation the use of the lakes each year.
The Tadpole Foundation provides a free day of fishing for
children ages 5 to 12. The Tadpole Fishing Party is not a
contest. There are no prizes, trophies or awards; just fun
and fishing.
All children should be accompanied by a responsible
adult, without exception. All fishing equipment and bait is
provided for children (only children are allowed to fish).
All fish are released live back into the lake from which
they were caught.
Free soft drinks, snacks and hot dogs are provided. All
participants are provided a free ride by bus from the
Church of the Open Door in Bellmead, Texas to nearby
private lakes.
The motto of The Tadpole Foundation is "Off the Streets,
and On the Creeks." The Tadpole Foundation is a 501c3
foundation, and contributions are tax-deductible. In 1999,
over 4,000 children and adults attended the event. In 2000,
an extra lake was built by Dr. Risinger for a First Time Fish
Catch Lake. Thousands of fish were stocked in this lake,
for children who have never caught a fish.Help Charlie
and Dr. Risinger keep our kids "Off the Streets and on the
Creeks."
Although the Fishing Party is usually held June,
this year the event will be moved to October.
