Mike, I think you might be better off on a charter. Many of the kids don't have gear and even if they do, what kind of shape would it be in? You'll spend the better part of the day fixing their tackle. With a charter, you'll still be helping to untangle messes, but you'll also have the added bonus of gear and mates to help out with. And, in the long run, more of the boys will probably end up catching fish and having a good time. If it were me, I'd consider bringing them on a Scup or bottom fishing trip where they're almost sure to keep busy catching. The other thing you wouldn't have to worry about as with shore fishing would be some of them getting bored and wandering off. Just my thoughts. Sounds like a good idea though to get them involved in the fishing.
Good luck.
