Help for one of our own

[Ray]

Just one reel would be good, for the rod/reel combo for most spots on a Red.
We can make the tourny a charitable one, if the majority agrees.
I just brought this up cause there is not much going on this time of year.

[ckinchen]

Guys please do not make this our charity event or contact any of our sponsors without my approval. If you do I will cancel the summer tournament this year. We can help without involving the site sponsors. It is not appropriate to ask them to donate to both. I learned some of this was already going on behind my back and I am not happy about it. It is very hard to find and maintain apons

Casey, not trying to take away from the SC tourny.
Just wanted something to do. Just put it on here cause a lot of fishermen hang out here.
Just thought we could help out another SC member who found out some not so good news.

we got it covered already.....done deal

all the money from the $10 pot will go to Josh's Family

Ray will get all detail when he gets home later this week

[ckinchen]

Guys josh is my friend I want to help or I would not have allowed or started the thread. My heart goes out to him. I just do not want to involve the sponsors then ask the again to he involved two months later. Most organizations have one big event per year ours is the summer event. My firm and I are personally going to help josh.

Put me down to help or we can have a Bobby Flay Jambalaya throwdown.

Its a Gonzales "thang"

I can give two years of free tax returns (who would not want that) and some new fishing equipment.

[ckinchen]

Also ray if you want to make the side pot like a said to benefit josh i think that is a great idea. It is a little late in the game to make it a full blown charity tournament as you would need several pieces of information from the center and from me, etc...

It sounds like everyone is cool with the summer event benefiting the center in Josh's sons name so we will certainly move forward with that idea.

good job fellas. nice to see alot of peeps getting involved.

Just want to have fun fishing. And if it helps out Josh and Family, I'm all for it.
Just want to do it the right way.

Damn I was fixin to jump on that too

I cant express enough gratitude to all of you willing to help and offer prayers. Not only just for my child but for all of the kids this center helps. I wish I could be at the tourney with my little man to express it in person but unfortunately I will be at work. Maybe I can get his mom to bring him out there for the weigh-in so he can hang out with all of you.
