Great idea Cray......sometimes a thank you can go a long ways
I called Brian at BBG marine and Ed Dukes at SouthernCrappieRods to personally thank them for their donations. Both seemed genuinely surprised that I did but thrilled with the call. I would challenge each of you that won a prize to pick up the phone and call the vendor who furnished the prize that you won. In talking to these folks you would be surprised how many of them will tell you they never receive a thank you call after they send out merchandise. Brian has a very limited advertising budget to spread out over a lot of Bass clubs and Crappie clubs. We were fortunate that Ree's got him to donate. Same with Ed at SouthernCrappieRods he has no budget for advertising, and both of these guys are a one man show. It only takes a couple of minutes out of your day to say thank you.
Donnie,Ree's and BigBlue as well as others deserve a big thank you for doing the leg work to get all those donations.

Slab LIKED above post
It's always nice for the vendors to hear from the people gathering up things to give away, but for them to get a call of appreciation from a recipient of their donations is outstanding to them. It shows how well their products were appreciated from the end users. GREAT job Cray!!!!!
Just thanked another one. What they really like to see is members posting pictures of fish they caught with their products.....and they do look over the boards for this.
