President's Report |
The year for the ALBC is going very good. All the ALBC tournaments are scheduled and being supported by organizations that are interested in working with the association. Club rosters have been turned in and it appears the number of clubs in the association may have increased a club or two. We have also noticed that some clubs are really growing in numbers. Both are good signs for the association. The ALBC had another great Best Six in participation, fish caught, weather and support. We really need to thank all the sponsors of the Best Six tournament because without their support it would be very difficult to put the tournament together. The sponsors are recognized and listed in another section of the magazine. I also need to thank the ALBC Board of Directors, our family members and volunteers that gave us support and help to make the tournament a success. The State Team tournament is the next event for the ALBC. The tournament will be held at Toledo Bend at San Miguel State Park on June 26 & 27. THIS TOURNAMENT IS OPEN TO ALL ALBC MEMBERS. Tournament applications have been sent to all members and the application is also posted in the magazine. Make your plans to attend. The Tournament of Champions (TOC) will be held on the Red River at Red River South Marina, just south of Bossier City and will be hosted by the Shreveport Sports Authority. The tournament dates of Sept 18 & 19. These are different dates that had been posted earlier but there were conflicts with another tournament on the dates we had previously, so we changed the dates to make everything work out. We need to thank the clubs that sold boat raffle tickets for this year’s event. Raffle sales were good and that is what keeps the association doing the things is does for the members and it also financially helps the clubs that sell tickets. Negotiations are going on now on the next raffle boats. We should be able to make a decision within the month on a boat manufacture and have the boats ready to begin selling tickets by the first of September. Clubs need to remember to schedule the boat with Ronnie if you want to use one of the boats to help sell tickets. Spots on the calendar will go fast now that clubs can sell raffle tickets in front of Academy. However, you must meet and talk with the Academy store director and schedule your club a date with them to display the boat and sell raffle tickets. That is all they ask and we need to acknowledge that. Thanks for the support you give the association and good fishing. |
