In case you haven't looked at our website in the last four months, our 25th annual Silver Anniversary Awards Banquet is on Saturday, April 6th on the fourth floor of the Pearl Street Grill. The doors open at 5:30pm and the event starts at 6pm. I highly suggest arriving early.

Here are some important reminders for our banquet:

• If you reserved tickets with me, but are unable to attend, let me know immediately.  We are close to cutting off tickets sales as we have almost reached our maximum allowed capacity. 
• Bring some serious cash. The raffle tables are beyond ridiculous and we have a Shimano Tekota and Strive 365 crossbow we are also raffling away.
• Come hungry. Appetizers and open bar start at 6:00pm and dinner will be served promptly at 7:00pm. The food is always great at the Pearl.
• US citizens, get your passport or enhanced license. We have six trips available to various Ontario lodges.
• Bring the big vehicle. There will be two 50" TVs available.
• Buy some new ropes. Anchor Marine has donated a slip for 2019.
• Don't fill the boat up too much. Rich Marine has donated four $50 gas cards.
• Check out the banquet program. I have an insert prepared with every gift certificate available.
• Be ready to choose. With the incredible amount of prizes, we will have to move reasonably quickly to finish before the Smith family communion luncheon on Sunday.
• Take the candles! Three of the candle baskets will have cold, hard cash hidden in them 
• Grab some crap. Frank's Boxes of Crap are really nice prizes, and one of them is legendary.
• Last pick blues? Not this year. The last pick of each table also receives a Mr. Toothy Deep Diver.
• Four tables,.plus one ticket. There will be four tables of prizes. Once all of the prizes have been awarded we will draw one more ticket for the raffle drum, a 72-quart Igloo cooler.
• Stay in control. Every prize we are.offering is rock solid. Don't get too blasted to read your raffle tickets.
• Kool and the Gang. This is our 25th anniversary banquet. Twenty-five years of protecting,. preserving and enhancing the Niagara River and Buffalo Harbor Muskellunge fisheries is something to celebrate. C'mon...
