“This tournament is a wonderful way for our students to connect with the local community while enjoying a fun and competitive outdoor experience,” said Sone Chounthirath, Iowa Central Fishing Club Faculty coordinator. “It’s all about building relationships and showcasing the talents of our students and participants.” The tournament serves as the Fishing Club’s largest fundraiser each academic year. The funds raised from the tournament will go towards purchasing the necessary electronic equipment for students to participate in ice fishing, shared Chounthirath. The club is free to join, and students are not required to provide their own equipment. In previous years, funds raised have been utilized to purchase ice fishing huts, electronic fishing tools, and more. Chounthirath expressed that the goal is to also be able to attend and compete in different tournaments over the season.
Teams with minor participants must contact the organizer at least one week prior to the tournament to ensure eligibility. For full tournament rules, additional information, and to register, please visit https://secure.touchnet.net/C20839_ustores/web/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCTID=55&SINGLESTORE=true

I have enjoyed meeting a lot of new friends and hanging out with them from other states or countries that come and learn at Iowa Central.
