When the Fort Frances Canadian Bass Championship got underway Sunday with the Safeway KidPro, few people realized how much work had already gone into creating the site and making things happen. Months before the tournament begins, businesses and organizations are contacted to assist the tournament.
The contacts, often in personal visits by directors, are for requests for donations either in the way of services or cash. Sponsors may feel more comfortable in providing products or services to the tournament instead of financial support.

If you have had a summer like I have so far you have to appreciate family as much as I do.
