The Black Hawk is proud to be a part of the local community.
We believe in making communities and families stronger- and we think that by bringing people together, getting them outside and fishing- we're helping to do just that.
Help the local community and save money on your fishing trip at the same time!
Each month, the Black Hawk will be collecting items for various local community organization. Bring an item on the list and save money on your fishing trip.
During the 2009 Season, the Black Hawk collected food for the Gemma E Moran Food Bank, Care and Share in Niantic, toys for Groton Social Services, cleaning supplies for the MASH shelter, school supplies for local elementary schools, and had our special "Black Hawk in the Community" money saving days.
More to come in 2010....
Look What We've Already Done...

August 13, 2009: The Black Hawk had a special trip with Make-a-Wish foundation of CT. We were proud to take 14 "wish kids" (and a few siblings) with an adult parent or friend, out on a special fishing trip. Everyone had a great time, and the Black Hawk was honored to help these special kids make new memories!

These toys will be distributed to local children at Christmas time. The money will be given to the social service office to purchase more toys during the holidays! Thanks for your support!
