Fisherman Funding Salvation Army on Rainy Lake!!

Heartily endorse your efforts to help the Salvation Army and other chrities especially this year. They have assisted our family more than once and helped me find holiday employment. Be sure do dig deep into your change pocket, too, when you guys walk past the kettles.

I would like to personally commend both Chris and Bill for their generosity during this Christmas Season. Some of us are insulated from the tough economy, but many more are not. It only takes a trip to the local food shelf or Goodwill center to see that the need is there this year more than ever.

Chris is one of the busiest guides in the northwoods, and to take the time to organize this effort is admirable at the very least.

Many of us on this site travel to faraway destinations like Rainy Lake to fish or hunt. When doing so, it’s important to remember the local economy we recreate in, to keep these opportunities we all love and enjoy possible. This year and this promotion, provides us that opportunity to give back while purchasing a phenomenal fishing trip at a world-class angling destination to boot.

Thanks Chris/Bill for the win/win, and everyone let’s spread the word near and far!

Thanks Guys.

Really this is all about trying to make a difference. As I told Beverly I don’t know if 1 trip will be booked over this timeframe or 10, but we’ll put the effort forward to see what we can do. I hope to be able to bring Beverly a nice little check that she can put to use. I know this would only be a small portion of the $$ she needs to effectively do her job with helping families, but if you add enough Small portions up it can be a big help. Really in all honesty my hopes are from just one fishing guide, and now Rainy Lake Houseboats to create a movement to try give back this season.

I’ve actually been extending this offer to others looking to book that haven’t seen this post, so hopefully we can get something rolling!!

I’d like to thank John Sells from Edina Realty for donating to our local Salvation army on our In Depth Outdoors/Rainydaze guide service/Rainy Lake Houseboat Charity drive. Will be running this drive for another week, so if you are looking on coming up it isn’t going to cost you any extra. I know it is going to a great cause. I’m going to ask Beverly if there is anyway they could draw a families name out of the hat for a guided trip as well. I know we all have needs, and we all have wants. Be fun to help with both!!

Great fishing with you John!! Look forward to getting out on the ice with you again soon!! Still can see those big walleyes illuminated under the ice!! Sight to behold!!
