2010 QCYC Fishing Derby

 This year’s QCYC fishing derby was again another successful weekend. We had a total of 12 boats, 37 fishermen and 28 non-fishermen. Among the 37 fishermen only 11 fish were caught - not many fish out there this year to be caught. The winning fish, 10 ¼ pounds, was caught by J’Anna Post. She received $100 for 1st place and she picked a haulout donated by Delta Marine. We are looking forward for the Post family to carry on with the 2011 fishing derby. All fishermen and non-fishermen received drawing prizes from the many donations by the many vendors. Thanks for all the time and effort by Diane Prestebak for gathering up all the donations.

We served a total of 64 dinners with the help of the following: my son and daughter-in-law Phil and Tina Damery , Kathy Montgomery, Karen Coughlin, Dorothy Cooper, Bob & Diane Prestebak and Irene Nelson. And special thanks for the night clean up crew, Tim & Carolyn DeCook.

On Sunday we had eye openers bar tended by Chuck Cooper alone with coffee and treats. And a special thanks for our qualified fish weigher, Gordy Foote, who spent many hours just waiting for the boats to arrive to write down the correct weight .
