[seanymph]

Hello Again LOTSA Members,
            It is that time of year again for two of the best tournaments on Lake Ontario hosted by LOTSA. We are a little less than two weeks away and wanted to send a reminder to sign up and some other details around the events.
            Friday July 19^th is the free tournament, the 9^thannual Curt Meddaugh Memorial. How can you beat a free tournament that pays back 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd.  The tournament format is a 3 fish box. We will also be doing a hot dog roast at the weigh in that will be held at the Olcott Marina
            On Friday we have the food bank coming to take the fish that are caught and we still need some volunteers helping filet fish, bagging fish and some other tasks that are not much effort. If you are willing to donate a little of your time please contact Matt Dunn by phone so he can add you to the list. # 716- 531-1153. The food bank has been extremely grateful every year and the salmon goes extremely fast.
            Saturday July 20^th will be 16^th annual LOTSA tournament and family picnic. Please sign up as soon as possible which will help us get a head count on food. Again One Eyed Jacks BBQ in Lockport will be catering. The tournament is sixty dollars per boat which includes the free picnic after to all fishing and family to attend. The tournament style is your one big fish. You also have the option to enter the 323 tournament which is your best fish 3 fish over 2 days. There is a little strategy involved with this because you have to decide how many fish you want to weigh in the first day and roll the dice for day two. Please see the site for full details.
            Last year we had over 40 boats enter the tournament which was great to see the growth and participation within the club. It would be great to break the 50 boat mark this year so please consider fishing and spreading the word. This is a great low cost fun tournament with a hot dog roast on Friday and catered BBQ on Saturday for you and your family. We had thousands of dollars in tackle and other prizes donated for our raffle to raise money for the club and our pen project that we will be doing during the picnic as well, please consider buying raffle tickets during the picnic.
            Please visit www.LOTSA1.org to sign up for Friday and Saturday tournament.  Along with the 323 if you would like to enter a chance to win a little more cash and fish a format with a neat strategy behind it.  REMINDER: When registering please enter a phone number that can receive text messages, this is how we will communicate any updates or weather delays the days of the event.
