Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | Just to dispell any rumors, or anger about what is happening from the Kly Tourny/Auctions 2004 & 2005, let me give everyone a little update:
-The two tourneys brought in $1500
-Last year's auction brought in $4400
*We used a Pay Pal account to hold this money under a shared name. This was a BIG MISTAKE, with mismatched names/addresses/bank accounts, moving this money into useable form has been blocked. The money is in the same account it was originally placed in, and now just needs to be moved to the account we used for the 2005 account. I will have this resolved as soon as possible. The money has not GONE anywhere, nor have I personally done anything with it. For more questions, please email me on this matter.
-2005 Auction: we had $3800 comitted this year. However, a NUMBER of people have not paid, but all monies raised are either in the Pay Pal account that was used, or in a savings account that has not, and will not be touched til we use this money for the stocking. For those of you who have not yet paid, please do. For those of you who have not recieved your items you have paid for, please be patient, I am going to head to the post office on Friday to deliever all that has been sent, and will be at the Swap Meet Saturday night, and will be handing those items paid for, to those who attend.
-Silent Auction: I have thus far totally dropped the ball on this. I admit it, work and MuskieFIRST and other things have made me lazy, and I have not gotten this done. My goal is to work for a while on Sunday to get all lots up for people to bid on.
-Stocking: once all monies from the old account have been moved into the new, and all possible monies have been collected from this year's live auction and this year's silent auction, we are gonna buy some fish. But until all activities are completed, we are NOT going to move forward to buy fish. We are going to buy the biggest, best suited fish for Oukachee, and will stock them. If we can get all monies together, and we are ready to buy, and the fish we want are available, we will stock in the spring. IF, those fish are not available til Fall 2006, then we'll wait til then or whenever we can arrange this properly.
A few more notes:
-GotOne: yes, the money was recieved, will send your stuff out Friday over my lunch hour.
-Bturg: I am calling Thor about your bait in 13 minutes.
-Jesse-WI: your jacket order was placed, but I never heard back from them. I will call them in 20 minutes.
-For those of you waiting on Beav customs: this is going to take a while, please be patient.
If anyone has questions/comments/or feelings about any or all of this, please contact me directly at [email protected] or via phone at 847/989-9271
Thanks for your great donations everyone, and again thanks for your patience. | |

You got alot on your plate, man. Still, you should be proud of raising $ to stock fish and keep your bud's memory alive! Kly is smiling ear to ear for what you have done in his honor.

Don't worry about that. Not one bit. I'll be there videotaping the stocking of those fish, every penny's worth, and we can send a copy of the video off that way. People also need to remember it takes money to package and ship the hundreds of items, too. Thanks for donating YOUR time to put alot of that stuff in the boxes. | |
