We are looking forward to the many more to come!" stated organizers Dave & Mary Baker, “the fishing community & sponsors recognize the work St. Jude Children's Hospital performs and are eager to support this event every year!” St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is internationally recognized for its pioneering work in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases.
