Mar. 15, 2024

LAKE WALES, Fla., July 24, 2019 – Yamaha Rightwaters™, Yamaha Marine’s national sustainability initiative, sponsored Yamaha Pro Angler Bobby Lane’s “Kids Fishing and Conservation Clinic” at Camp Mack in Lake Wales, Fla., July 13. During the event, Yamaha Rightwaters representatives led a plastic bottle cleanup campaign and attendees collected more than 1,000 plastic bottles, which a local Boy Scouts of America troop sent off for recycling.

 

“This clinic would not have been possible without the support from Yamaha, Guy Harvey®, Captains for Clean Water®, the International Game Fish Association® and the volunteers who dedicated their time to make this event a great success.”


Yamaha Pro Angler Hunter Bland was a special guest at the event and taught a boating safety seminar. Bland stressed the importance of always wearing a personal flotation device (PFD) on the water and using an engine shut-off safety cord attached to a PFD.

“There’s nothing more rewarding than equipping young anglers with the knowledge of boating and water safety,” said Bland. “Boating safety should be a top priority for all anglers and boaters, regardless of skill level. Making it back to the dock is the most important part of any day on the water.”
