We are still holding Casting Kids at the Filer Fair grounds April 27th & 28th.  The event hours are Sat. 10:00 to 9:00 and Sun. 10:00 to 5:00.  We appreciate all the help that we can get throughout the 2 days, don't forget if you participate you will receive special event ticket (s), for the special rod at the end of the year.

We are getting started on the Open, Kerry & Scyler got the paper work & posters made.  The only changes that were made were, adding an addition $100.00 option pot.  We need everyone to start getting donations for the general raffle.  Scyler picked up a 1990 Ford Bronco from Randy Lancaster for the car raffle. This vehicle is loaded and very clean. Thanks Randy!!! At the next tournament we will have flyers and tickets for everyone that has not all ready got some from Scyler. He will try to have them by Tuesday. Please call him, he will have them at Southern Idaho Freightliner 324-3333-work#.

Our next tournament is on April 20th, at C.J. Strike, at this tournament we will have to obey a 45 mph speed limit through the narrows.
