The 1st Battalion Warrior in Transition is putting together a fundraiser for the Wounded Warriors on Fort Hood June 25th 2010
We are reaching out to our community of boaters to get volunteers who are willing to either fish the tournament with a partner of your own or sponsor a WT to fish with you:
The Tournament will be held June 25th 2010 on Belton Lake Outdoor Recreation Area (BLORA) The tourney will start at 0700 and weigh in will be 1500! A cookout will follow the tournament.
The entry fee: Fishing with your own partner $50 / Fishing with a Warrior in Transition $25
This is a team format 5 fish per team. Prizes for 1st - 3rd overall sack will be gift cards to places such as Bass Pro, Academy as well as Big Bass!
If you are interested in fishing the tournament or sponsoring a WT please send me your contact information through a PM and you will be contacted back. We are trying to get enough boaters to sponsor atleast 20 Warriors in Transition so they can take part in this tournament. Fishing was very vital to my recovery from wounds suffered in Iraq and would like others to experience what fishing can do for their recovery.
TEXAS BOAT WORLD HAS VOLUNTEERED TO RUN THE WEIGH IN
Any support would be greatly appreciated! We are in the process of making flyers and entry forms!
Thank you! Keep your lines tight!

Just mailed out the entry form and I'm looking forward to fishing with a WARRIOR. I am trying to talk my father into fishing as well.

June 25th is rapidly approaching we are still interested in getting volunteer boaters. We would like to have all flyers filled out and returned by June 10th, 2010 which gives us time to match boaters and warriors.
PM me if you would like a flyer!
