Scyler opened the meeting at 7:00 at Pandora's.
The club received a $145.00 check from Bill Jackson Memorial fund to be
used on the CAST kids event.
The Dave Withers Derby went very well, all the clubs came down to
support this great event. The tournament made $937.00 to go
towards the scholarships. In the account there should be $300.00
left over from last year that way we should be able to give 2
scholarships again this year. John Lancaster won the big fish at
18" long.
The sports show that was held in Boise went well, we had 7 members that
went up and helped out with the casting kids event, they went through
about 50 kids in 2 1/2 hours.
The State Championship was canceled on March 8th and will be held in
either June or July. The Winners will be fishing for the divisional
next year at Flaming Gorge.
We will not be having a big raffle item for the OPEN, at the April
meeting we will go over the tournament and get stuff finalized.
Free Fishing Day will be held on June 7th, we will have some girl
scouts from Shoshone, they will need help to show them how to fish.
On June 15th will be the State Jr. Championship in Burley we still need
some more boats to come help out.
The club will try to hold a castings kids event at the Filer Fun Days
