Ardoin Benefit online Auction
 
4 Attachment(s)
Guys, I lost the toughest man I know to cancer, so I feel compelled to help this young man out in his battle with cancer. I'd like to donate my camp for a long weekend to the highest bidder. Duration of the stay will be from Thursday 4 PM- Monday 11 AM. Camp is located on a peninsula at the corner of Kelso Bayou and the Ship Channel in Hackberry, La. The camp sleeps 12 sober and 14-16 inebriated, has a boat launch, lighted pier, fish cleaning area, and outdoor kitchen downstairs. Good for any weekend except holiday weekends. Really don't even need a boat to enjoy a weekend of fishing and crabbing. I have everything there, you don't need to bring anything except your fishing gear. The rent on a weekend like this is normally $950, so lets start the bidding at $750. All proceeds will go to Mr. Ardoin and his family.

This is great. I wish I had a friend like you, or money and time to bid on this.

marty f 01-20-2015 03:03 PM

This is very admiral of you!!

Wish I had 12 friends to invite!! (Well that I would trust in your place)

Bluechip 01-20-2015 04:44 PM

I'll start it off at $750.

But last time I had too much to drink on that piece of property the camp was a small trailer and I damn near had my finger cut off by some catfish grippers lol....

Angler Bay 01-20-2015 05:41 PM

I do remember that weekend Bluechip.

Let's make the last day to bid, Sunday, January 25, 2015 at 10 pm. And the winning bid is good for a year, if needed.

southern151 01-20-2015 06:15 PM

That is great of you! I'm watching a dear friend and, true bada$$ lose the fight right now. I'd love to see this young man beat it!

I can't much bid on this but, if I ever have the chance to meet you, I'll gladly shake your hand and, buy you a cold drink of your choosing.

Bdub 01-20-2015 06:46 PM

Thank you so much Sam for your donation. Josh had a tremendous amount of support this weekend at the benefit and everyone had a great time. Josh is up for another round of Chemo in the next few weeks and will also be up for surgery, this donation/auction will be greatly appreciated by Josh and his family!

If we can put 14 to 16 Salty Cajuns in this place for a weekend drunk and fish fest at 150 a head that's about $2100 to $2400. Just saying.

marty f 01-21-2015 08:41 AM

Ill do 150 as well just to meet some of you *******...... er fisherman! hahaha

Angler Bay 01-21-2015 09:09 AM

I like the tournament idea, W put me down for 2 spots at $300, that puts us at 10. Maybe we could do $50 or $100 throw down for the weekend, and pay one or two places.

I think we will get another two guys to jump in on that weekend, but Craig if you are still good with $1,000, I'll throw in another weekend, and that will get us to $2,800 total.

Buy 2 , I'm sure there is no way possible all 12 will be able to make it the weekend that is picked

So I would say 2 more will not hurt ... I'm more than likely if home will just drive boat across and party

mriguy 01-21-2015 12:26 PM

We are going to follow W all weekend, we need new fishing spots

You guys tell me when you want to throw it, Spring, Summer, or Fall and I'll start mentioning possible dates.

marty f 01-21-2015 02:16 PM

mriguy 01-21-2015 02:27 PM

Spring is good, the sooner the better.

Andy C 01-21-2015 03:20 PM

Any time good for me, where do I send the check or PayPal ?

"W" 01-21-2015 03:42 PM

How can we pay ?

Who is heading this thing up? Set a date so you can make sure who can go and who can't.

meaux fishing 01-21-2015 04:08 PM

Im good with anytime in the spring as long as it isnt the weekend of March 15th

Angler Bay 01-21-2015 04:12 PM

Ok here is first shot at a date, how about April 9-13?

Angler Bay 01-21-2015 04:18 PM

I think the easiest way to pay is on the gofundme account that was set up for Mr. Ardoin. Once you have paid just send me a PM with amount.
