Great write up BN. Individual club officials like you and Dan dont get enough credit for all the extra duties that you perform behind the scenes. Going down the chicken coop isnt a picnic.

LOL!!! Thanks Fu.
BTW... Almost forgot to mention, BigFred met with the Manager of the Cooper River BoatHouse and they discussed some things as a better plan of action when it comes to sculling events and\or closure of the boat ramp when SJBCA clubs are scheduled to fish that day. Quite interesting.
The Cooper Dredging project is suppose to start around August 17, 2015. We shall see.
We should be good for our August 1st tournament unless they start earlier..
