Memorial Fishing Tournament for the Kids in honor of Deputy Rick Rhyne - Saturday August 11th

by Sandhills Boys and Girls Club
(Southern Pines, NC)

LOTS OF FUN FOR THE KIDS

LOTS OF FUN FOR THE KIDS

The Sandhills Boys And Girl's Club is sponsoring a Memorial Fishing Tournament in Honor and Memory of Moore County Deputy/Retired Foxfire Village Police Chief Rick Rhyne who was tragically killed in the line of duty this year. His wife Wanda is a volunteer at the Boys and Girls Club and is assisting in coordinating the Fishing Tournament to be held at Lake McKenzie in Foxfire Village, August 11, 2012 from 10am - 5pm.

Wanda and Rick started the event with the Foxfire Village Police Department where Rick served as Chief of Police for over 25 years. This event was a tradition that Deputy Rhyne, Wanda and the Foxfire Village Police coordinated each year to give the children in Moore County an opportunity to spend the day fishing, possibly for the first time ever. Deputy Rhyne and Wanda wanted this tournament to always be a day of fun and good memories for children.

The event will begin at the Foxfire Village Green Park with a tribute to Deputy Rhyne and all Officers who are present. A number of activities will be featured in addition to the fishing tournament including the NC Wildlife Sensory Safari Trailer & Mobile Aquarium with live fish native to our area. A local Firetruck and Foxfire Village Humvee will be on display and the Smoke Trailer for educating children.

The Boys and Girl's Club is asking each of you to support this wonderful event for Kids by donating prizes for the event of any size that is kid friendly or money to purchase prizes. Deputy Rhyne always made sure that every child would leave a winner.

The event is co-sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of the Sandhills and Parks & Recreation Departments of Aberdeen and Southern Pines. For more info or how to help contact the Sandhills Boys and Girls Club at 910-692-0777.
