Photo taken by Dick Dick Dragiewicz Photo is
of a person I guided. Dr. Dave Hoggerland.
David bid on a donated trip of mine to the
Cancer Grief Center Of Brown Deer. He won
the trip and the donation generated thousands
for the Grief Center.
I guided for 5 years. I no longer guide.
During those years I donated
22 trips to local TU/FF Chapters
and another 13 to people that had fires/
organ transplants/Cancer Grief Centers/
Lymphoma Research/Alzheimer Foundation/
Lions Clubs/VFWs/Solider Injured In Iraq/
Boy Scouts/Cub Scouts
My total donations were 35 ......2 person trips.
ALL verifiable
OVER $10,000 in donations to the clubs and actual people of my area.
Sometimes it is necessary to do more than just fish! |

Thanks for helping out! :thumbsup1:
I have never done it for a fund raiser but have taken some guys hunting and fishing with major physical imparements and still enjoy doing it.
I will never forget years ago when my dad belonged to the Lions Club and I would help out, like talking the blind kids snowmobiling, they had a blast! |
