PHOTO GALLERY: Fourth annual C.A.S.T. for Kids

The buzz of energy was high at Lake Granbury on April 29, as local Granbury ISD students prepared for the fourth annual C.A.S.T. for Kids event in Hood County. As STEAM Academy at Mambrino students exited each bus and made their way to the dock at DeCordova Bend Park on Friday morning April 28th, the excitement was palpable as smiles appeared in eager anticipation of what the day would bring. Created for ages six to 18, the C.A.S.T. for Kids event is designed to provide an opportunity for children with special needs to enjoy a quality outdoor recreational experience through the sport of fishing. C.A.S.T. stands for Catch A Special Thrill and spreads a positive message that kids with disabilities can accomplish anything. The event was created and organized by the C.A.S.T. for Kids Foundation — a public charity formed in 1991.
