Dewey, the man we all came to know so well, is gone, but his memory will live on in this tourney series that he started and which, since last year, has borne his name as a token of our collective respect for him.
Here's hoping the groundswell of support evidenced last year by increased participation continues this season as we launch the 2013 tourney series on Saturday, March 23rd. Fishing hours for this event are safe light (approximately 7 a.m.) to 3 p.m.
I would remind everyone interested that, if you'd like an electronic copy of our schedule and/or rules and regulations, all you have to do is email a request to me. My address is kenneth34@cox.net. Or if you happen to be out at West Neck Marina, hard copies are available in a plastic holder on the counter located just inside the door to the marina store. Just ask the attendant if you don't see them.
At the same time, I'd like to let everyone know there's an American Cancer Society donation container on the counter, which will be there throughout the year. As labeled on the container, all donations will be made to the American Cancer Society in Dewey's name. We also will be donating a percentage of all tourney entry fees this year to the Society in his name.
Whether you've fished with us before or are planning to check us out for the first time this year, we extend a warm welcome and look forward to seeing you this coming Saturday as we launch the inaugural event of the 2013 series.
