Friends on the Go June 2026 took us to Echo Hollow Nature Park to meet up with third and fourth graders with the Boys & Girls Club of Morgan County summer camp!
Bobby with the Tackle Service Center in Mooresville shared his day with us to show us how to set up our fishing poles!
One of our Friends mentioned it had been 30 years since he went fishing last. Others were potentially skilled fishermen and enjoyed helping the kids set up their poles and bait their hooks.
After a picnic lunch, the kids did a little nature scavenger hunt and brought their findings to add to their new Friends' tape "bracelets."
To wrap up our afternoon, we felt a DQ stop was in order!
A day well spent meeting new friends, sharing some new memories and reminiscing of some old ones, all while taking in some nature too! We were visited by a curious raccoon who seemed pretty familiar with the park!
