I don't own a boat, but have relatives and friends that have either served, or are still currently in the arm forces, and some still deployed.

I do rent some slips up here at Eagle Mountain Lake in the N Fort Worth Area, and could check with our marina owner on something like this. I'd love to fish side-by-side with some of the most unselfish heroes known to our country.

It would be the least I could do and really have nothing more than the upmost respect and reverence for our ladies/gents that serve our country across the world. God Bless em'.

Just talked to my buddy Bill and he is going to register his boat.That should bring the count up to at least 7.
Keepem coming in guys!

Thanks Kevin, that's 7 boats so far. Shooting for 20. I know of 2 other boats that will be on the water. Got the cards printed out for windshields @ the ramp. Won't be able to place them until May 18th. Going out of town until the 17th. Also got some flyers printed. Hopefully I will be able to get them to the bait shops and sporting good stores Friday prior to my departure to Corpus Saturday morning. Keep up the great work all. See you on the lake on May 18th. Dave

DB,
Do you need someone to man the Granger HQ (pavilion)? I ain't wounded, but I'd still help if I had time. Also, do you need any help getting the word out on-post here? June is gonna be a busy month for me, but I believe I could get away for a Saturday if necessary.

TYD, May need your assistance driving a boat. Might have one lined up for you to be the skipper on. I'll let you know. I still can use your assistance @ the HQ if not. Thanks man.

Sorry about the date for yesterday. 30 boats committed so far guys! Keep it up!

DBman I only have 6 boaters signed up using the forms. Check your list and match them up to the names of the guys that have said they signed up so they get the chance to be counted as well. This is great guys. Thank you very much for the support! Later Mike

OK Granger Gang. Can't let those north TX fisherman out do us. Let's get busy and sign up. Need @ least 14 more boats to sign up. I'll be in Corpus 3-17 May for work. Will still have the computer up and running awaiting your boat registratiosn. Thanks! Dave

Dave, you know I'd be there...but......

I know you would be there my friend if you could. I also know/understand why. I had hoped to see you @ the BB fish fry. Like to get your assistance in rallying the BB for our event on Granger. The more the merrier. Be careful/be safe/watch your 6. Dave

Here you go!!!

Slow day?
