ETBU fishing team gives back to the community

Sharing their love of fishing, the East Texas Baptist University bass fishing team recently helped with the annual "Fishing for the Future" event held at Pirkey Power Plant in Hallsville.

This event is hosted by the Harrison County Game Wardens, AEP/SWEPCO, Texas Parks and Wildlife, and Texas A&M Forestry.

The event had about 150 special needs students and adults from East Texas school districts and the ARC of Harrison County. ETBU's bass fishing team helped the students bait their hooks and reel in fish.
