For three decades, our volunteer members have been the heart, soul and driving force behind VRFish.
Today, International Volunteer Day, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to all of our valued members and volunteers.
Although we have a small team of staff, it’s our members who raise key issues, work tirelessly on the ground and in their communities, and achieve major wins for Victorian recreational fishers.
The enthusiasm, dedication and countless volunteer hours contributed by our Board members, fishing club and association delegates, individual members, and committees have helped make fishing better for everyone across Victoria.
Thank you for your contribution to the recreational fishing sector and giving back to the sport we love.
