Wounded Warrior/Heroes on the Water Rockfish Opening Day Derby - Guaging Interest - Page 2 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

It's looking the value of the Swag Bags might actually be valued higher than the actual entry free. We have at the very least, gauranteed, 10 custom built rods to give away as raffles and prizes. M&M, Salty Dawg, Matthew Change, and Jeff B are all wrapping sticks for us.

Most likely, first place in the boat section, and first place in the kayak section will each get a set of 3 custom built rods.

We are in talks with some other great sponsors. This project is going to be more than a backyard tournament. We are booking a nice venue, live entertainment and fun activities. Vendors will be there giving away swag and promoting products. There will be a TON of discount coupons in each swag bag for local companies.

The official tournament shirt is going to have great artwork, and Charles from Kelp Clothing is doing a special run, limited edition Wounded Warrior Project design for us, which will will be selling. It will be printed on a UV protective, long sleeve fishing shirt. All the profits from those shirt sales with go directly to the charity.

I can't explain how excited I am about this project!
