The Yerrid Foundation Grand Slam Celebrity Fishing Tournament presented by Bonefish Grill is the premier fishing tournament on Florida's West Coast. It will be held October 19-21, 2012, at the breathtaking Renaissance Vinoy Resort & Marina in St. Petersburg, Florida. This festive weekend is filled with fishing, food, and fun for a very special cause!
The weekend kicks off on Friday morning with the Steve Yerrid Kid's Fishing Derby, which gives children in the community who are battling cancer the opportunity to simply be kids and fish alongside celebrities, media, guides, and volunteers. Other activities include a parade, aquatic exhibitions, training in knot tying, and a lunch and awards ceremony where every child is honored.
Friday evening's Fishermen's Ball brings together tournament sponsors, anglers, celebrities, and guides to support the research to find a cure for pediatric cancer. Guests will enjoy cocktails, heavy hors d'oeuvres, and an incredible live and silent auction in the Renaissance Vinoy's beautiful Tea Garden.
On Saturday and Sunday, anglers, celebrities, and guides enjoy two full days of competitive inshore fishing for redfish, snook, and trout.
It's a weekend packed with fantastic events and we sincerely hope that you will join us for the 15th Annual Yerrid Foundation Grand Slam Celebrity Fishing Tournament presented by Bonefish Grill. Let's reel in a cure for childhood cancer! For details, visit www.pcfusa.org.
