In Appreciation

Our most sincere thanks to the following for their help in making the BRGC Walleye Derby a success on Saturday, July 16:

Major Sponsors: Opportunity Bank, Townsend Marine, and Rocky Mountain Supply

Sponsors: Hedstrom Auto Repair, Designer Tackle, and Flamingo Grill.

Townsend Area Chamber of Commerce/Canyon Ferry Walleye Festival donated caps for the youth.

Upper Missouri River Chapter of Walleyes Unlimited donated bracelets and sunglasses for youth

Canyon Enterprises/Esther Fishbaugh donated the use of the pavilion at Broadwater Bay

Friday night - The people who set up, cleaned up, checked in the folks who entered the Derby, and helped them buy youth raffle tickets and enter the Big Walleye and Big Carp pools.

Saturday - The people who checked boats out in the morning and in that afternoon, measured fish, did the calculations on the cards, did various administrative things, and in general, made the Derby run.

And, of course, the fishermen who did the fishing and generously supported the raffle that gave the fishing youth a nice bit of cash of their very own on Saturday
