Things are going good with this fundraiser tournament for the American Cancer Society.

We are now able to give them our first donation of$630.00.

Besides the payout guarantee for 13 prizes of $500.00 ,each for fishing teams,the reality that we could get them some funds is now evident.

Thanks alot to teams that have entered so far and especially the buisness sponsors that make this possible.

The calcuttas and the Belgian Waffle breakfast will turn in additional funding as will more teams entering.

We are shooting for 100 teams total and it looks like we will make it.

All sponsors that made this possible and ones still signing up and the teams [a big thank you]

4 more sponsors and several of them also entered teams as of today May 18 2007

[primetime49]

Got some more teams ,Minnesota DIsabled Vets,husband and wife,and more metro.Our first Willmar team,husband and wife.

Got a nice add from highway 23 summer events brochure and will mail that whole brochure out to all teams with June 15th mailing.

Now comes the fun part,every stock car race I frequent ,ball game etc. i just bring applications with and personally invite the people we sit with to fill it out.

60 days to go and things are looking good.

We have not needed to spend a single cent on advertising this event .So looks like all the rest of proceeds will go to our cause The American Cancer Society

Thanks

[mr d]

you are doing a great job!!!! counting the days down

[primetime49]

Mr.D started taking out some people that hadnt fished or wanted to just fish .5 times out so far ,lake has been good to us each time.

Also on the end of making this thing a go we have now added 21 prizes of $100.00 each,things such as boat winner brand ,truck that pulled it,motor that powered it etc.

also we have been able to do this as a couple of financial specialists have offered some matching funds[still speculative but looks good]for the moneys that go to American Cancer Society.

Todays new sponsors include Roth Chevrolet,Thrivent Financial For Lutherans,Disabled Fishing Vets.Kandiyohi Power Cooperative,Yamaha,and Lund.Our best help is Office Max that is giving us full color help at cost of black and white.Kandiyohi County Park #5,Green Lake Liquors,

Best single sponsor with teams,American Legion,best web site for teams[Fishing Minnesota]

Also most of these are adding teams besides helping.

So if you win and have a Chevrolet,Lund ,or Yamaha ,thats another $100.00 for each.If you win and dont have these American cancer Society gets that money to.Must be more brands of tucks ,SuVs,boats out in the world but we havent seen any sponsorship from them.

At breakfast banquet one of first big prizes is half day fishing trip on Green Lake with Bass Pro and or multi species guide.Warrior 193 Mercury powers this pro,fished against him before and with him .You will have a pleasant trip.this prize can be bid for Veterans only at the breakfast banquet along with other silent auctions.

Any registrtions post marked after June 15th leave 1/2 hour late.Other entrys are computer generated.

thank you

[primetime49]

Mr.D this weeks contribution to the American Cancer Society will be $830.00.Lots of new sponsors and web sites.

Lots of interest in Kids Fishing games from12to 2 at Saulsbury Beach Landing and for Breakfast Banquet at the Spicer American Legion.

Locals are really starting to fill in the open spots.

WE ARE REALLY HAVING TROUBLE GETTING TOWN PAPER TO PUBLISH OUR EVENT,SO WE HAVE PUT UP MORE POSTERS AT NON SPONSORS AROUND AREA.

COMMERCIAL CLUB HAS LISTED THIS AFTER 90 DAYS ON WEB SITE ANDLAKES ASSOCIATION WILL PUT IT IN NEWS LETTER,THEY THINK THEY WILL GET A LOT OF PERSONS TO COME TO BREAKFAST.

IT ALL HELPS.

TROPHYS ARE PLANNED ON GRANITE ,MARBLE AND SOME OTHER REALLY NICE STONE,FROM STONE ART FOR LIFE,THESE ARE PROVIDED AT A GREATLY REDUCED PRICE BUT NOT FREE SO WE NEED TROPHY SPONSOR HELP IF ANYONES BUISNESSES WOULD LIKE TO HELP.

LETS GET A HANDLE ON THESE CANCERS.HOPEFULLY FISHERMENS DEDICATION FOR A CURE WILL HELP.

[Bigfife]

Primetime, thanks for keeping us informed. There was a pamphlet on my truck two weeks ago at the landing and I am making arangements to fish it. I can't believe there aren't people jumping all over this. I think everyone this day and age knows someone who has been diagnosed with cancer, so why not have fun fishing and support a good cause. After the tournament last weekend, I don't think I'll be winning anything but it will still be fun.

[primetime49]

Bigfife,hope you can get back up.

local paper finally got this in today.

put 500 pamphlets on wipers at 4 tourneys here and New

London since last last weekend.

Prior Lake Mn. is leader with number of teams entered 6

A great deal of sponsorship

Chaska ,Hutch,Glencoe{Plato] Excelsior ,Victoria,Brooklyn Park,Brooklyn Center,Wayzata,And on and on have the next most with several each.

Really been fishing Green alot and its is pretty good.

We have 2 tournaments again next Saturday and Sunday,will put more under wipers.

Getting entry or inquiry every day[at least one]

do figure it to fill with patience.

out of teams entered now 13 actually have a survivor on team;think they are after the extra money ,but know its because they care.Last saturday one of the best walleye fishermen around here had to drop out of LCA walleye tourney because he was to ill from his Cancer to fish.

I know i am a man ,but I teered when I said goodby and goodluck when he left.

We just gotta do something to help these people.
