  • Dickinson War Memorial Benefit Tournament

    Folks I'm working with a Local Boy Scout as part of his Eagle Scout project to set up a Benefit Tourament to help build a War Memorial in Dickinson.

    Currently the Date of the Tournament is Sept. 19th

    We are currently looking for sponsors for the tournament and donations for a silent auction that will be held afterwards at the Dickinson VFW, along with BBQ plate Dinner.

    What I can really need right now is suggests of where to hold the Tournament Check-in and Weigh-in. The place needs to be pretty close to Dickinson so after weighing in folks don't have too far to go to the Dickinson VFW where the awards will be given out that evening.

    I will also be needing some help at the Check-in and Weigh-in the day of the tournament. So if you would like to help out let me know.

    Thanks
    Derek

    Here is a link to a video on Ch 13 that covered the story for Memorial Day. It shows the design of the Memorial and has more information.

      I would suggest the Fish Spot 2 marina on Moses Lake as a checkin/weighin spot.. or the marina where TopWater Grill is located...I think it was once called April Fools Marina...not sure, about to have my first cup of coffee to kickstart my brain...

                Well things are starting to come together. Capt Wayne is going to MC and the Coastal Bend Weigh Team is going to do the weigh-in services for the event.

                Not sure how this will work, but we have decided to use the boat ramp at Dickinson Bayou and Hwy 3 for the Check-in and Weigh-in location. Though there is enough time to move it if enough folks think it is a bad idea. The best part about using it is the VFW Hall is less than a mile away.

                More to come as I get the details put together.

                    Actually, I'm not going to fish this one because I'm running it and there would be a lot of things to do that day to get ready for the weigh-in and everything. However, 007 will be fishin with my son and the apple don't fall far from the tree if you know what I mean......

                      Bounty hunter
                      i believe the young man contacted me in regards to this tourney and said someone had recomended me for a possible donation was that you by chance?
                      Any way i chated with his mom and told her to remind me early on so that i would not let it slip up on me, if you are the one that sent the young man then help remind me so that i dont get busy and let it slip up on me, as you know i do a lot of charity and giveaways, might as well cant sellummmm so i will just give them away :d
