Good job Paul. I took care of that other post also.

Paul....Great job getting this together. This pre fish tourney, the Wilson slam, The Pro Am.....What an exciting weekend!!!

Question: Is this an all weather event?

Our team looks forward to participating in all of them. Good luck to all!

[Paul Czarnecki]

Thanks for the compliments Rod but, honestly, I had nothing to do with it. This is a joint cooperative effort between Olcott and Wilson. Mike Johannes, who has run the Don Johannes Memorial Derby for several years, saw the wisdom of teaming up with another "good cause" and recognized the need to unite the towns of Olcott and Wilson in this effort.

ALL the credit for this great event goes to Mike Johannes (Wilson), Dawn Wilson (Olcott), Bob Cinelli and a few others in Newfane, Olcott and Wilson.

All I did was post the announcement.

See ya there!

Sounds fun, I am pretty sure that we will do it

I assume you do not need an observer?

Also anyone know who might still have open slips? I'm sure it will be tough to find open slips, we would need one for Thursday night only

[Paul Czarnecki]

HI Todd,

NO OBSERVERS!

I believe both McDonough's and Hedley's have slips if The Town marina doesn't.

I also think there are some left in Wilson--though I'm not sure what marina. Give Kevin Jerge a call at the Boatyard or call Sunset Bay.

See ya there
