Drdore (Sam) isn’t even a member here in FL but in TN and wanted to help this go well. Some very nice jigs with extra attention to detail went to Slab Queen, and Phantom 309 got the many Jigheads that he sent. Thanks Sam, a great gesture. All told, many folks put their helping hand in and things went very smooth. Crappiegirls cake was completely gone before everyone left, thanks Linda. SlimJim and his wife Paula also contributed, the two kinds of slaw were both awesome.

As always, Slab was a big part of the event. He and the two boys came bearing gifts for just about everyone in some way. Rods, hats, calendars, stickers, and the really cool limited edition commemorative T-shirt’s. We don’t call him the boss for nothing, extra big thanks.

I had a good time and it gave me a new respect for those that take the lead on hosting one of these. I was officially busy. I looked around and saw a lot of smiling faces and friends enjoying some time together, so I think it was a hit. My Queen also made it there and took a few pics. Nice to finally put a face with a screen name and say hello in person. Many made a pretty long trip to attend and I appreciate the effort. And now I know how to better help someone else when they host one.
Anyway, here’s some of the pics.

I want to thank Slab, Skeetbum and my wife Tina for making a great gathering happen. Skeetbum did the hard part of organizing everything all the while working full time and working on a large remodeling project.

Skeetbum, really, thanks again for hosting such a great event!! It really went off without a hitch. I would also like to give a shout out to DrDore for the most remarkable jigs I won in today’s raffle! [emoji106] Honestly, these things are amazing! I’m a lucky girl!

It was great to see such a good crowd for this event, sorry I had to scoot so quick.

Great time at the fest, went off without a hitch Timbo:highfive, also to all who contributed in 1 way or another, & as always Slab to take the event up another notch:ThumbsUp...good to see the ole gang & meet a few new members... & CG1 to put the "icing" on the event...

Primarily and most importantly, appreciative thanks go out to Skeetbum Tim for stepping up to the plate so we could pile up our plates with food fixins contributed by certain members/friends. The elves, Rob & Tina Anderson, played significant roles with their gracious attentiveness/contributions and workload share. Special thanks to Slab for flavoring up the quality prizes, calendars, event t-shirts to enhance the value of C.com membership & multi-state Crappiefests. Thanks to all who donated the door prizes and their time to attend/enjoy. It's what it's all about. Great to see folks both seasoned & new and for those who couldn't make time to attend, you missed a beautiful day at a well-organized party. Recognition to tied !st place big fish finishers Brian(spectacklure)/Tanner(1st mate of skipper Pontoon Pappy Don) with their 1lb. 9 oz slabs, good job guys. My partner/member CarlosDMD thanks Lonehunter for his Crappiefest t-shirt that he was awarded by Slab by default.

u2s:cheers2
