Hey all,

Here is a great event that helps an even greater cause. This is a banquet that is a pre-cursor to the annual St. Jude Children's Hospital annual Bass Fishing tournament that is held every year down on the river. Many of us do not have the time to fish the tournament, but most of can get away for one night. I went to the event last year and it was great. Most if us are not fishing yet, so this is a great way to get our and talk with a bunch of other people about fishing and win some great prizes. Last year, everyone that went left with a prize!

Thanks for the info Rich. St. Judes is a very worthy cause, indeed.

Rich,
It is always nice to see fishermen/gals give back to the community and help out the disadvantaged.
For the past 5 years I fish the Easter Seals tournament on Old Hickory Lake in TN in May. I take a handicap person, mostly children, and a camp counsler out fishing for the day. We fish for what ever bites. Last year the girl I drew, the counsler and I caught 48lbs of bluegill, shellcracker and crappie. To me it is very rewarding.
Keep the good work.
