Re: Lab Memorial - Puosu Vi
 

Now that we have roster pretty much set for 12/8 trip on OE I want to start focusing my efforts on door prizes from sponsors and others as well as donations from members who can not make the trip but still want to contribute. If you are looking to donate a door prize to be raffled please either contact myself (MVP), Gerry or just post on this site with your Name (Screen Name) with description of your donation. We will keep a list of your name and door prize or donation listed on the first page of this post.
To get things started I will be donating a rod I had built for Lab that I was going to present to him at this years PUOSU to thank him for all he has done it putting these events together for us over the past 5 years. I remember him always talking about this old fiberglass rod with wood handle that he bought at a flea market for like 10-15 bucks that he use to catch a ton of fluke on. He loved this rod so much he had a name for it: GRANDMA. I purchased a rod over the winter which I thought was a Harnell. Nice wood handle with deep bend. Guides were all beat up but rod had a real nice feel to it and reminded me of GRANDMA rod he use to speak about so fondly. After I stripped it down and sanded down blank I found that it was not a Harnell but an old Fenwick that I am very fond off. I had it rewrapped old style thread with updated Titanium guides. The rod came out beautifully as I am sure he would have loved it. I may have to fish it at least once on the trip to give it some good LAB mojo before it goes to a new home.
I am also working on getting white leggars donated for both trips. Can not promise this yet but it is in the works through friend of mine who knew LAB. This will save us around 300 – 400 bucks that can go right to the family. My goal is to raise at least $3000 bucks during this event so I am asking for everyone to step up to the plate and give what you can as I am sure it will be greatly appreciated. Many of you who work at big corporate companies may want to ask your employer to match your donation as we will also list the companies name on the front page list. We are off to a great start so lets keep the momentum going.

Nice of you to donate that Alex. I'm sure that rod is going to have some good mojo on it. One keeper per trip. A "LAB LIMIT" :)

Re: Lab Memorial - Puosu Vi
 

Alex,

I will donate a pair of Costa Del Mar Sunglasses valued up to $279.00 from Eyes on First Ave. It would probably be best for the winner to come to the store to try on the glasses and pick out what they want versus me just picking out a pair. I can give you a gift certificate that says it is for a pair of Costa's if that would work. I can mail it to you or you could stop by the store to pick it up. Please let me know what works best for you.

Jamie
