I had a great time last night. I was proud of Brad. He was so nervous up there with those guys, but Tim Horton is a class act. He is really as nice a guy as he appears to be.
Brad and I are very excited about this organization. Been thinking and studying about it for months now. Brad Whitehead, myself, and Pat Stegall (another fishing buddy) will get the ball rolling with the organization. We will kind of be officers, so to speak, for the first couple of meetings and tournaments, with the hopes to have elections quickly for new officers. Then the three of us can just be members of the club.
I have downloaded and made a few appropriate changes to the South Carolina assotiation by laws. I will hand those out to the prospective members to look at for a couple of weeks and then return for the second meeting to vote on the by-laws.
We eventually would like SACA to be affiliated with Crappie USA. But, we don't plan to go that route until after the first year, after we get the ball rolling.
Very exciting stuff for us right now!!
