Fishing Derby and Tournament
#1
I am hosting a Kids Fishing Derby and Adult Fishing Tournament on Saturday, July 3rd, 2004 at the Bronson City Lake in Bronson, Kansas. The kids derby will be free. It will be from 8am to 11am. They will receive a prize for participation. The ages will be 15 and under. The divisions will be 5 to 9 and 10 to 15. I will be giving awards for the longest fish, shortest/smallest fish, most fish, and most unusual catch (like a turtle). It will be alot of fun. Awards will be presented at the lake along with free hotdogs and soda sponsored by our local FFA. Hopefully I will have a professional give a short talk and a demo. Bank fishing only. Catch and Release. Live bait or lures. If you are interested in donating anything for the kids please contact me.
If you are interested in the Adult Tournament, please e-mail me at mrcwoods@hotmail.com. I am still working the adult tourney out.

ya never know there may be something left in the wear houses....

Adults who want to take their young anglers fishing can find events on the
official web site of the Wal-Mart Kids All-American Fishing Derby ---
[url "http://www.kids-fishing.com/"][#0000ff]www.kids-fishing.com[/#0000ff][/url]. Go to the Derby Locator section and enter your zip
code. The results will show the closest derbies, indicating where and when
they will be held and, often, how to get there.

if you are attempting to do this on your own try hooking up with another organization like the "Jcees" "Eagles" "Moose" "Elk" "Scouts" "Boys and Girls club of America" "YMCA or YWCA" "Optimas" "4-H" or a multitude of other Local organizations in your area.

Chances are good that one of those orginizations would already have an intrest in your project, but lack a coordinator to get it rolling. Put your program down on paper and present it and you may just get swept right in the front door.

Many clubs ask that you pay to be a member of their club, but when you put dollars to donuts it is far more profitable than trying to run it on your own. Any one who has done this can attest to this fact.

You will quite often find both partisipants and manpower in one of these clubs. not to mention community willingness to partisipate and the green backs from the club wanting to get this program running.
