Well, that’s a wrap on the 16th edition of the Peter Larmand Outdoors Kid’s Fishing Tournament. 61 young anglers participated in the event catching a total of 362 fish. From the smiles that I saw while they were fishing and catching fish is the reason why we do this.
I want to send a special thanks to my wife and daughter: Robin and Jessica. You have supported me and been beside me as we put in countless hours to try and bring this event together. Thank you very much for all that you do. Not only behind the scenes but the day of the event and immediately afterwards.

This event wouldn’t be possible without the support of the above mentioned sponsors and volunteers and the countless hours we put in to try and make this a successful event. Changes are already being planned for next year’s event. We are not perfect and if we make a mistake we will resolve it. We hope that you will continue to come to our event and we hope to see you all next year.
