If you have a teenager who loves to fish, bring him/her to Beach Haven this coming Thursday night at 7 p.m. at the Maritime Museum at the corner of Dock Road and West Avenue. There you can register for the Beach Haven Charter Fishing Association Junior Mate Training Program.

Join 15 to 18 other teenagers in learning the skills you need to learn to be a charter/party boat mate. Learn both Inshore and Offshore skills.

Check the Junior Mate page at http://www.BeachHavenCharterFishing.com for details.

The program cost is $25 for the season. Training for Junior Mates will include the New Jersey Boater Safety Course and a 2-year CPR certification taught by SOCH personnel at no additional charge.

Registration Forms, Parental Blanket Permission Form, and information on the drug test program most of our Captains use are all on the Junior Mate page on the Association's website noted above.

Call Capt. John at 609-290-3349 for details.
