Well, the Flatlander awards banquet was last night and I had a great time. What a great week this has been with the Heiting meeting and then this. The weather has been unseasonably warm and fishing is on everyone's mind. Dinner was very good and the company was better. Tim Scruggs and Steve Ruhmann did a great job as MCs for the night. It was nice to see a few faces that we don't get to see all the time. Dan Savich made it up and Jerry and Becky Oestrich made it down to join the group. We know it's a long drive for you guys so it was nice to see the weather cooperate this year for a change. I'd like to give a few thanks for some members that made the evening a success:
Tim Scruggs and Steve Ruhmann, thanks for putting on a good show.
Tim Scruggs, thanks for being chairman of the Members Only Contest and tracking all the entries.
Russ and Mary Hoernecke, thanks for organizing the event and taking care of the dinner menu.
Kris Lamendola, thanks for running the photo contest and donating the cake.
Jerry Oestrich and Gerry Carrol, thanks for donating the baits for the silent auctions.
Mary Haas, thanks for letting us know that Wally should be called "Walt" form now on.
Charlie Wilhelmson, thanks for allowing us to re-elect you as honorary president...whether you like it or not.
Thanks to all that bid on the silent auction items.
And finally, thanks to the muskies that let us catch them so we had another reason to get together. Good luck to everyone this year and have fun on the water!
