(from Jersey Coast Anglers Association September 2004 Newsletter)
It’s getting to that time of year again. The Jersey Coast Anglers Association will be hosting its annual “Sportsperson-of-the-Year” awards dinner/dance as a fundraiser on November 14, 2004 from 4:00-9:00 p.m. at the Crystal Point Yacht Club, RT. 70 & River Rd, Point Pleasant, NJ. We will honor this year and past years' recipients of our “Sportsperson-of-the-Year” award. Past honorees include legislators, environmental leaders, outdoor writers and other worthy recipients.
This year’s keynote speaker will be George Poveromo, Senior Editor of Salt Water Sportsman Magazine and host of George Poveromo’s World of Saltwater Fishing on ESPN2.
At our September general membership meeting we will be taking nominations for this year’s sportsperson of the year. So, if you or your club would like to nominate someone as this year’s honoree, please present a short biography as to why you or your club feels this person should receive this year’s award.
Individual tickets are $60 each and tables of 10 are $500, which is a $100 savings. This gala event will accommodate 300 supporters and friends for a semi-formal sit-down dinner with choice of entrees and cash bar. So get a group together from your club or organization and come to the dinner/dance and have a great time. Don’t forget your partner. That’s right. Treat your mate (you know, the one who waits for you at home/on the dock all summer) to an evening to remember at the beautiful Crystal Point Yacht Club. Enjoy an excellent three-course meal, Door Prizes and a DJ. Share stories of fishing and bid on one of the many fantastic theme baskets on display.
If you or your club would like to donate a prize, please contact me, Paul Turi, at (609) 597-3193.
Dan Miller will be co-chairing the event this year and tickets can be obtained by calling Dan at (609) 641-7821.
