Tournament Invite 2011.PDF

Fellow Anglers,

I am very pleased to be able to invite you to the annual Mingara Fishing
Tournament to be held on the weekend of 5th and 6th March, 2011 on the
Central Coast.

This years tournament (2010) was bigger and better than the previous year
and we are hoping to make next years better again. This year we saw some new teams competing who had never fished the waters of the Central Coast but walked away with some very impressive prizes. With the knowledge gained I am sure they will be better off for next year.

For those that have competed before we look forward to catching up and
hearing the ones that got away, for those newcomers, the tournament can be
best described as a good weekend with great prizes and great hospitality. I
also encourage you to forward this invitation to any other clubs you have
contact with.

Full details are in the attached invitation, so please read through the
information and should you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact
Daniel or myself using the email address or our telephone numbers on the
invite. I would really appreciate a reply email to acknowledge receipt of
this invitation and possibly an indication of your club's possible intention
to enter the tournament or even when your club will next meet to discuss the
possibility of entering as per the voting buttons.

I need to emphasize that we are asking for registration and entry fees to be
received by Friday 17th December so please address this as soon as possible.
Again, if you need further information, please let us know.
