Hello All!! Due to the restrictions in place with Travis and Williamson counties, we have decided it would be best to cancel the April 4 tournament on Travis. Of course the April meeting will be cancelled as well since we cannot meet anywhere. We can discuss further logistics as the May tournament approaches, but it has been an idea to move the Travis tourney to the May date (May 2). If anyone has any questions, please call Jeff.

Our spring 2-day tournament was discussed at great length; however, it was tabled to be re-visited at the March meeting. We did discuss the possibility of a 2-day local tournament, which means 2 local lakes (or the same lake both days) wherein teams can stay at a nearby hotel or travel to and from home each day. Again, nothing set in stone; please bring lake ideas and accommodation ideas.
Raffle time: Mike (with Pete’s help) ended the night with an awesome raffle! Hope to have a BIG turnout for the Belton tournament!
