THIS IS A OPEN TEAM FORMAT you can fish with anyone you'd like. We are still trying to pair up Volunteer Boaters with Wounded Soldiers / Veterans to be teamed up to compete in the event together. It's a small gesture to give thanks for the sacrifices made by our Men and Women who served this great NATION.
2nd Annual Operation Comfort Benefit Tournament
SEPT 10th, 2016 on Lake Palestine
Operation Comfort is a non profit organization that provides support to our Services Members who were WOUNDED in the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars. They offer events , projects to the service members to provide them an outlet and relief during their recovery process as well as financial aid to relieve the burden on them and their families during this stressful and testing time.
We whole heartedly believe in Operation Comfort as 2 members of the Hookset Brothers were beneficiaries to their support and events during their recovery process from their wounds sustained in Iraq and Afghanistan.
This year we are upping the anty to improve on last years turnout and results.
