Christopher J. Robertson Never Give Up Benefit Fishing Tournament

Chris Robertson, is a local fisherman and member of the Chattanooga Fishing Forum(Clutch442). We are going to be raising money for his rising insurance bills. Chris has been diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer and the cancer has spread to his liver. Chris is a great person and would help anyone on this forum. The entry fee will be $30 per boat and all proceeds will be donated to Chris. There will be trophies awarded to the top 3 finishing boats as well as a trophy for big fish. I will have free hot dogs and hamburgers at the weigh in, as well as several tackle door prizes. I normally wouldn’t ask for help, but I am on this one. I am working with several tackle companies now for donations and different local vendors. The location for the for the tournament will be at Chester Frost Park August 27th, 2011 safelight until 2pm. This will be a 3 fish limit tourney, and will be great fun. Please come out and support a local brother in need. Im trying to get enough door prizes together so hopefully everyone can walk away with something! The sponsor list continues to grow, and I will continue to update this thread. I just want to get it out there so I can guage how many people will attend, and how to set up all the prizes. Hope to see a lot of boats there for Chris! Churly has granted permission to use the weigh in station that day and to use there scales. I will need help with the weigh in, because I have never done it before. Thanks sooooo much for all the responses and feed back! This should be a good one. The list of sponsors will be updated daily. Any questons please let me know. Guys I have a lot of great prizes to give away, please come support this tourney! Thanks!!! UPDATE- I have updated the donations below, thanks to the local guides, a lot of great prizes starting to add up, and more coming!

I'm in emoUpsmile and i'm sure my partner will be too. My wife does a lot of couponing so I can donate some condements (ketchup mustard bbq sauce ) if needed just let me know. I will help n any way that I can.
 
Thanks guys, this will be a fun fishing day with some great gifts and trophies! I cant say enough. I hope Chris can make it to the weigh in!
 
If I can get off work, I wil fish, if not where can I send a donation? The world needs more people like you Seth, someone who is willing to help out with nothing in return. I am always willing to help out a brother in need! Please IM me the info.
 
One more thing, everyone that reads this thread, don't forget that your prayers will go allot further than you think!
 
Seth, you're a good friend! I will be there along with anyone else i can talk into going. I've sent you a PM with a way i might be able to help.
 
I will plan on being there but like pointer said if i can't make it for some reason i will find a way to get the entry fee by there. Like others have said you're one hell of a friend
 
I will try and be there,but if i cant i would like to send a donation.Do you have a address were donations can be sent?Will also keep Chris and his family in my prayers
 
You guys are awesome, I hope to see all of you at the tourney!! I hope and pray Chris can make it...he does his chemo on Fridays, so fingers crossed!
