Flounder Tournament Wrap Up:
We had a great turnout for the Flounder Tournament on June 14, 2014. Plenty of fish were caught, and a great meal was enjoyed by all following the awards ceremony. The SFEC would like to thank Whale Creek Marina for all of their help, and the Boles family for providing the hungry fishermen/women with a delicious meal and doing an excellent job running the tournament!

There was a great turnout for the 8th annual women’s tournament on June 28th 2014, held in memory of Jane Shetler who sadly passed away in 2006 after a losing battle with ovarian cancer. The fish were definitely willing to be caught, the hard part was finding a keeper! Following the tournament, the awards ceremony and a delicious dinner prepared by Bud Lyon was held at the firehouse. The SFEC would like to thank all of those who participated in the tournament, along with all of those who made generous donations to the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. A special thanks goes to: Whale Creek Marina for their help & support, Dick Omrod & Dick Shetler for weighting in the fish, Bud for cooking a delicious meal, & Carole, Rosemarie, Tom, Herb, Rich, Debbe, and Mike for all their help!
