However, I commend all those attending and would like to offer the following incentive: a limited edition (only 10 made) Guy Harvey giclee for the largest fluke caught and a new rod and reel for the largest legal fluke caught by anyone 16 and younger.

Dave,
Thanks for the kind words but its much more about what you guys do. We also have a lot of familiar faces from last year, new recruits and some who couldnt make it but offered donations. As you stated, they deserve a ton of credit for their time and $$. After last years trip none of us even knew if we would have a season this year. We got a season and better yet regs that are tolerable compared to other areas thanks to the work of SSFFF and RFA.
The Guy Harvey and Rod/ Reel gesture are certainly appreciated, over and above and will make the day even more competitive (I mean special).
Dave Arbietman's offer brings up a point. I dont know everyone going personally yet or some of your guests. I am sure some of us qualify for acting 16 but do we actually have any 16 or younger on board??
