Jim J Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Jonn, Tim, Eric and I have been working with Jackson Kayak and Paddle and Trail developing relationships in order to benefit the ISA and those companies. It's great to see Paddle and Trail come into our area and support organizations such as ours. We have been discussing Blowout support and conservation support like habitat plantings etc. with PT. Last year Jackson donated a Coosa to the Blowout. Here are some updates: Paddle and Trail has offered the ISA a free booth at the upcoming Chicagoland Boat Show. Jonn Graham will be a featured speaker there on Saturday at 3:00 and 4:00. There is also an article about Drew Gregory in today's Sun Times. That article promotes Drew's appearance at the boat show and his upcoming seminar at the Blowout. This really helps us with getting the word out about our organization and our major fundraiser. Here is the link: http://www.suntimes.com/sports/outdoors/9842709-452/kayaker-drew-gregory-defines-cool-water-fishing.html Here is another link mentioning the ISA in the Rockford Star: http://www.rrstar.com/businessrockford/x1266412463/Paddle-and-Trail-hosts-PaddleFest-Pavilion-at-Chicago-show Right now we can't do the booth unless some people step up to hep set up and man the booth for the four days. Jonn and I can help work a bit on Saturday though we're dividing our time between Paddle and Trail and ISA. Please post here if you can volunteer and or if you can head this up. Please also support Paddle and Trail your local canoe/kayak/bike and more company. http://www.paddleandtrail.com/paddle-and-trail-aurora-illinois Thanks.

ronk Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Joz Make sure to tell Jonn to tell everyone at the show that "there are no fish in the Dupage River." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
