RIMS was founded in 1958 by a group of fisherman that frequented East Beach and the Charlestown, Rhode Island areas. As a family-oriented club, RIMS was organized with a mission dedicated to the preservation and conservation of our coastal resources, as well as maintaining public beach access. Today, RIMS continues its stance on public beach access, preservation and conservation, and the protection of our fisheries.
