DAV TOURNAMENTS 2010

[Grizzly Gary]

I will be having dinner with the DAV folks at The Willows this evening. I am told they have the dates for 2010. I will post them when I get back.

[Bryan Hoffner]

I'll bite you.

Anyway, is there any other possible details to list?

I know you had to have brought up something we've talked about.

Is the whole format staying the same?

[Grizzly Gary]

Indeed a few of us did have a spirited discussion on how to grow this most worthy event.

We all agreed that the bottom line is raising monies for Disabled American Veterans.

We also agreed to disagree on whether a 2 day individual payout is better, paying down more teams with a less 1ST place payout is better as well as several other suggestions.

Will be attending the November DAV meeting to share opinions.

[Ricky_33]

[Grizzly Gary]

We'd love to have you Ricky_33. Great bunch of folks fishing for a great cause.

Mighty One I am with you. Got hunting on my mind right now. Tournament season seems a lifetime away.

[Wally diver]

Fished the brant and fields tournament last year out of wolf run marina and had a great time and caught fish both days. Was a great time and the best part of all is that it was for a great cause it supports our veterans that fight to keep our country free. I will most definetly be looking forward to fishing at least one of these events next year.

[Grizzly Gary]

Glad you enjoyed the experience Wally diver. The monies raised support so many worthy Disabled American Veterans causes.

The DAV folks not only transport Vets to their hospital and doctors appointments in Cleveland, Erie, Buffalo & Pittsburgh. They also put on several fishing outings for the Vets from the Soldiers & Sailors Home and more.

Let's do the math:

Fun + fishing + competition + good people + supporting veterans = ONE DAMNED GOOD TIME FOR A DAMNED GOOD CAUSE!!

I hope many here will put these dates on their schedule for next year and fish these tournaments.
