Off the Hook CSF - Week 3 of Pickups!

Posted 8/4/2010 2:05pm by Sadie Beaton.

We hope you are enjoying the joys and challenges of insanely fresh, whole fish from the Bay of Fundy.  Please feel free to share your recipes and experiences at our facebook fan page or on your twitters and blogs!


This is just a quick note to remind you that your third delivery will be arriving on  Thursday, August 5th.  Fishing member Orlie Dixon is currently on the water, catching your share on his fine vessel the Danielle & Shauna- pictured below.



See below some details about the pickup, including a reminder about what to bring, when and where to show up:


When to show up: Thursday, August 5th, between 4 - 6 pm. 
Where to show up: Capital Health's Victoria General Site, in the terrace area. Free parking is provided by Capital Health for ten minutes (take a ticket on the way in). Longer parking is available by paid meter on nearby streets- which may be handy if you plan to attend a filleting demonstration.
Directions: http://www.offthehookcsf.ca/map/directions/77
What to bring:    A cooler or freezer bag.

What to expect:
-This week we will be streamlining the sign in process, so you don't have to give your name twice.

-At the fish weighing station, you will have your name checked off the list by our excellent Intern Christian, and receive your share, wrapped by amazing volunteers  Laurie Thurber and Ben Jain, along with help from the somewhat less coordinated (ironically) CSF Coordinator Sadie Beaton. Our other star volunteer George will be recording your fish share species and weight. 

-Please bring a cooler or freezer bag to keep your fish as fresh as possible.

 -Tony and Laurie Thurber will also be happy to answer any questions you might have about bottom hook and line fishing and why building fishing co-ops is so important for coastal communities like theirs.

-Shares that are not picked up by 6 pm will be donated to Hope Cottage for use in free hot meals.
