On Friday May 19, 2023, the Marion Police Department held its first ever Take a Kid Fishing Trip with 16 fifth graders from Eastfield Global Magnet School. Each student was paired with a fishing buddy from the Police Department. This was a great opportunity for these kids to have fun, catch fish and build relationships with our officers.
This is an event that the Police Department plans to continue each year. Thank you to the NC Wildlife Resources Commission for providing the location and fishing gear to make this event a success.
