Information about the Frank P. Jones Memorial BBQ:

  • Kings River Conservancy modeled this fundraising BBQ after a successful program implemented on the Kern River in 1995 to stop trout poaching.
  • KRC named it in memory of the Honorable Franklin P. Jones who loved fly fishing and the great outdoors.
  • 100% of the proceeds from this dedicated funding stream are forwarded to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
  • Donations to the program go to fund extra warden patrols on the Kings River to help reduce the trout poaching pressure.
  • To date the program has raised over $80,000.
