Thank you everyone who came out and participated, donated time/money/prizes, and those who just showed up to show support. It means so much to us.
Special thank you to Mr. Terry Evans with Flo Co for making sure the landing was immaculately clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone. To Mr Jeff Wiles for also helping with the landing, donating and cooking the food, helping with advertising, and helping us navigate the tournament. Stan Pierce for printing our awesome Hooks for Hartz T-Shirts, Slo Poke Bait & Tackle for all the great additional raffle prizes, including the planer boards that I had no clue what they were and tried to raffle them separately! 😬🤣 I'm learning!😜 You guys always support us! Id also like to thank Nathan Dawsey and Florence County Parks & Rec for sponsoring our trophies, American Trophy Co for getting the trophies ready on such short notice. Tyler Hartz for always showing up to help at events and camp. Charlotte Kinlaw for showing up before dawn and staying the duration to help keep me on task, Mr Bernie, for cooking and coming out the day before to help prepare and keep things interesting, and lastly, God, for letting us have such a beautiful day when the weather called for thunderstorms!
We had such a great turn out. Thank you everyone for all of your continued support each and every year. We are so blessed to have such an awesome community. I hope we will continue to grow and make this a huge yearly event. If I missed anyone, please tag them. We love you guys! 🩷💙😊
