    We are still a go for this July 13th event!! If you haven’t done this event – I highly recommend giving it a shot! It is fun, humbling and for a fantastic cause in memory of Officer Schneider, whom lost his life in the line of duty in Lake City.

    Very well done Jimmy! I think you are one of the organizers of this each year? If so, thank you!

    Thank you CaptainMusky! A few of us that organize take immense pride in organizing!

    This year is a tough year for us. It is our 12th year (lost one year due to Covid) and sadly our first recipient 13 years ago of this scholarship was Matthew Ruge, whom was one of the three officers that was killed in the line of duty this spring from Burnsville. Matthew was a Wabasha-Kellogg graduate. There will be tear’s I am sure.

    Hi Jim, is this tournament still a go? How many boats are signed up?

    I would assume the no wake would be lifted?

    That’s definitely a bitter sweet situation. Definitely a shame he died, however it will hopefully bring a little bit more light to your organization and help it grow to assist more people.

    This is the best local event of the year, and the fish fry afterwards is amazing! We will see you all there in the morning. Last years winners are boat #1 right Jimmy?
