Any youth and young adult are welcome as long as they agree to follow the code of conduct and are comfortable and aware of our movement’s teachings and traditions. Within the program we talk about True Parents and Divine Principle content.

Will I be able to take fish home with me? +

We try our best to make sure participants can take a 25lb box of professionally frozen fish home with them. How successful the fishing is during the program will determine how much fish each participant can take home. International participants may not be able to check fish boxes as luggage due to long flights and custom regulations.
