Wow, what a turn out. Great people make great times.  t^

I want to thank everyone for participating in this event. Without everyones help and input this could not happen.

There were some great door prizes, thanks to all who donated.

I think we need a bigger place to have this. We will be looking for a place that can fit everyone in one room and we are open for suggestions.

 chrz chrz

Here are some pics of some of the door prizes and attendees.

We had a great time.  chrz  Nice to see everyone again and to meet some new friends too. Thanks to the moderators for all the hard work they put in to make the party successfull. The prizes were awesome. Thanks for the sinkers Joe and the fishing trip I won on Hotrods boat will be a blast. And I took advantage of the St.Croix rod discount, Thanks Bob. Now I'm gonna head out and chase some Stripers!!  Report to follow tonight. ;) chrz
How about a dinner cruise next year?  It will cost more money per person but they are fun.

What a night,

Hats off to Rod, his family and all who helped make this party a huge success and a fun night out.

It was great to finally shake some hands and put some faces with the names on the board. What a great group of people we have here on this site!!

The party rocked, great conversation and laughs had by all. The food was awesome and the prizes, what can I say, incredible!!

When I got home of course my wife wanted the scoop on the party, she wanted to know why I was so late in coming home. I told her the party ended at 10:00pm but it took almost an hour to help Rod get all the prizes he won loaded in his car.  rofla rofla

Here's to a great 2009 season for everyone,  chrz

See you on the water,

Kenny..........

I know who won the trip and I don’t think he will give it up! With the captain’s offer to go topless, who would?
Maybe we should start an auction; he might let it go if the price is right. I know I wouldn’t.

Who left a pair of Arnette polarized, black sunglasses at the party?

They were left on the first table in the room with the bar. I was one of the last to leave and figured they belonged to someone at my table and I would find the owner. Well, I checked everyone at my table and they do not belong to any of them. If they are yours, let me know how I can get them to you.
