Thank You from SoCal Heroes on the Water

[YakMedic]

Thank you to everyone that showed up today for the OEX tournament that benefited the Southern California Chapter of Heroes on the Water. I can't thank OEX enough for stepping up and hosting these types of events that bring our kayak fishing community together.

Today we had 102 anglers show up to support the cause and raise money for the chapter. With entry and jackpot buy in we raised just over $3,000 and the National Heroes on the Water business office is currently matching all funds raised dollar for dollar bringing our total from this event to a little over $6,000.

Special thanks to OEX Mission Bay and OEX Sunset Beach for event coordination and planning.

Thank you to the weigh boats for on the water fish weighing.

Thank You to the following companies and people for donating products for the awards ceremony:
Wilderness Systems
Skrilla
Jeff Bias
Werner Paddles
Squidco

Thank You Catalina Offshore Products for the Thresher shark and for always stepping up to help HOW.

Hopefully I didn't leave anyone out, but finally from all of us at the SoCal HOW chapter Thank You!

Heres a quick video from the Northern California Chapter explaining a little of what we do helping the veteran population.
