This just in.... To support the New Jersey Chapter of Heroes on the Water, the Jamboree Organizers are raffling off 3 kayaks. These kayaks were donated so 100% of the proceeds goes straight to HOW-NJ. Meaning 100% goes straight to helping our wounded heroes to heal! I believe they are going to sell the tickets one kayak at a time.

Only 100 tickets being sold for this first kayak. Of which no more than 99 are left because I just bought mine :D

Holy cow! I didn't realize TKFS was a sponsor. I would've been more wordy with my post. TKFS has been an AMAZING sponsor of HOW-NJ too. They organize a jamboree to raise money for us every year, they host two of our events, they provide us free space in their show-season booths, they provide kayaks when we need extras, they facilitate our kayak acquisitions and they host at least two of our outings a year.... I can go on and on and on... they take nothing and give much.

I'm am proud to say that between Pete at Atlantic Bait & Tackle, the good folks at TKFS, the many volunteers from this board and Gerry's support for our cause, the NJfishing.com community is one of the biggest supporters of HOW-NJ in terms of volunteers, funds and equipment!

Thanks to all of you!

The support HOW and our VETS get is well deserved. Good things happen to good people Jon....

The Jamboree is from the 25th to the 27th. I believe they will pull the tickets on the 26th as that's the main fishing day. There will be 3 kayaks raffled and they are limiting number of tickets sold for each. I believe they will sell tickets one kayak at a time. The winner does not have to be present.

Hey Jon - After further inspection it see this Yak has no cooler on it. Oh well, guess I will have to donate it to HOW when I win it. I can't have a boat without a cooler for my fishing beverages :D

Round 2 of 3

The tickets for the first kayak sold out in less than 24 hours. There will be 3 raffled. They are now on the 2nd one, which is a Native Slayer 12. Definitely a sweet ride, with a high, very comfortable seat!

Get your tix while they last!
