    Default SLAB Approved... This is what I'm looking for...


    OK, I was being a little cryptic earlier... We had a couple of local fishermen, in MS, get into a really bad wreck, and we are putting together a big raffle, which will include guided trips... These fellows are the salt of the earth and would help anyone anytime, but now they need our help...They are both going to need serious rehab, and the medical bills are already piling up, plus loss of income...
    I asked SLAB if I could advertise the raffle when we are ready to sell tickets, to get this out in front of folks all over the country and he said, "Do it!"... He also said I could solicit donations... Yes, he is that guy!

    I am looking for a guide who is willing to donate a trip on Lake Fork to add to the prizes. My thoughts are that someone from out of state might win, take the free day, and probably book the next day...

    If you are that person, or know someone who will help us with this, or can even donate anything else we can add that would be great. Please PM me, and I promise we will do everything we can to promote this.
    I will add info on the raffle in about a week, so that all who are interested can get tickets...
    Thanks!

    OK, if we can't manage Lake Fork, how about Toledo Bend?

    Is it possible for a GoFundMe page to be setup for these sportsmen and their families?
    Pass the "Sportsman Baton" on before you're gone, promote values for others to hunt and fish upon.

    We have that, but it hasn't done very well with folks who don't know the guys... The raffle will offer an option to win something, and the money still gets to them since everything is donated... We are reaching out to a big area in hopes that we can raise a lot more... Here is the link to the Go Fund Me account... https://www.gofundme.com/.../friends-4-life-get-2nd...

    We ran into some issues with selling tickets online, which should be resolved before long. I will post details once we have that worked out. In the meantime, we are still taking donations, and looking for one guide to step up and offer a trip...
