Actually, you know what?  I think the name drawing is a great idea as well.  I don't know how many people would go for it, mainly because you will never be able to pry some guys from their fishing partners!!  COUGH*Flyguy*COUGH  Also, I have no idea how the Freak would make out as a partner for someone else, I just recently got used to his weird smell and constantly asking me to come over to have a look at "something"!!  Trust me, if this idea is done, and you get Freak as a partner, just stay at least 10 feet away and don't look directly at him and you will be fine!! ;D ;D

But seriuosly, I think this idea should be given more thought, or even a poll done for it!! :)

Just to keep everyone up to date....

 The starting point will be Tim Hortons on Lickman Road.. Registration for our event will be between 6-6:30 am, entry fee will be $20, we will be fishing as singles ( you can fish with a group if you like ) no partners at weigh in :) All Hatchery Steelhead that are to be entered must be at the weigh in by 1pm this is the cutoff time !

  I am hoping we will have volunteers to run the weigh in tent, if this is the case we will have prizes for first fish entered, smallest fish , biggest fish 2nd and 3rd and maybe a secret weight also :) I am hoping that we can raise enough prizes so that all the entry fee money can be donated !!

 There will be a potluck BBQ at Cedar Run starting at around 1pm so I am hoping that everyone that enters can bring some sort of food stuff !! please send me a pm telling me what you can bring or just post it on this thread, I think I can bring my BBQ but another one would be good, we will need tables and chairs and coffee and hopefully a generator,

 I am looking forward to this event :)

Rick, can you put up a list of who's coming on the original post at the beginning of the thread and prize list as well? I know I'm going for sure and I will be bringing a friend who is not a FWR member.

A couple of questions for all those that are coming, does anyone have a generator? does anyone have another BBQ? does anyone have a propane outdoor burner?

We are also going to need tables and maybe chairs, Fishfreak is bringing a tent for the weigh in but another tent could be useful especially if the weather is not so nice! I am also trying to find out if there are any non fishers that will be able to donate some time to help set up the food and weigh in areas, I am thinking that all those that are bringing hot food can somehow get it to the weigh in area a little before 1pm .. just a few thoughts!! if anyone can think of things I am forgetting please let me know, I would also appreciate it if you could e-mail or PM me and let me know what kind of food you will be bringing

Just so everyone knows the entry money from this derby will be going to the Chilliwack River Foundation I think thats the right name I am sure I will be corrected if I am wrong! The money will be given most likely to Chris Gladsen to be distributed properly :) I a hoping that enough prizes will be donated so that we can give the entire sum of all entry fees to the cause :) I am still working on a nice first place prize and I am thinking a nice gift certificate to a tackle shop such as Reaction would be a nice prize for the top fsh !!!!
If I cannot get this as a donation I will likely take some of the entry fees to get this certificate!! I have learned from a good source that we will have propane burners available to heat up the soup and hot water and such so a generator may not be needed after all
