Reel Guppy founder, Kevin Brannon.
On Tuesday, September 3rd, Kevin Brannon was honored with the Port Hueneme Hero of the Year award at a city hall meeting. The event celebrated individuals who have made a meaningful, positive impact on the community. This year, the city recognized two exceptional community members, with Kevin Brannon, founder of Reel Guppy Outdoors, being one of the awardees for his significant contributions.
Over the past 13 years, Kevin’s Reel Guppy Outdoors program has reached more than 7,000 children in Port Hueneme, offering them unique opportunities to learn about wildlife, the environment, and the importance of conservation. His program emphasizes hands-on learning, exposing kids to topics not typically covered in school, while encouraging them to appreciate and protect the natural world.
In addition to his work with Reel Guppy Outdoors, Kevin also leads the Reel Anglers Network, a TV show that educates viewers about outdoor activities and local events. His latest episodes are set to air next month, further expanding his reach and impact.
Kevin’s dedication to inspiring and empowering young people has made him a hero to many, and he continues to strive to make a difference not only in his community but worldwide. As Kevin often says, “With the help of our community, we can achieve anything.” www.reelguppyoutdoors.com.
