Congratulations to all our winners and a HUGE THANK YOU to Gunny Sean who donated a Native Ultimate 12 Kayak to the Chapter. This will be a great boat to keep our Heroes comfortable and dry when they come fish with us! Your donation means the world to us and the chapter. Semper Fi Brother!
THANK YOU again to everyone who came out and fished and supported the cause today! I got a lot of compliments on the tournament but I have to make sure everyone knows, Austin Pritchard, Justin Carter and Tommy Samuels, my cohorts in HOW, did as much as I did to set this up and there is no way I could have done it with out them.
