Scholarship Report September 2008 It is time to start spreading the word about the fourth annual Charles and Marie Hollins Memorial Scholarship. This year’s event will again be held at Atlantis Marine World in Riverhead on Friday November 7, 2008 at 6:30 P.M. In past years, the dinner was held on a Thursday night. This caused many people to not attend because they had to get up early for work or school the next day. For this year’s event, I spoke with the catering department at the aquarium and they gave us a Friday night and we are able to keep ticket prices the same as last year, $55 for adults and $40 for children. We will need your help to make this night even bigger than last year. As always, we will need help the night of the event to set-up, sell tickets, check people in, etc… More importantly, we need help spreading the word. This is a great reason to get a group of friends together for a night out. Admission alone to the aquarium is currently $21.00+tax per person. For $55.00 you get admission to the entire aquarium, a really great dinner with an open beer/wine/soda bar. You cannot beat that for the price, and all the money raised goes to supports the future of our marine environment. We also need help collecting donations for the raffles and silent auction. Not all donations have to be fishing related. Past year’s event sponsors donated dinners at local restaurants, wines, pictures, quilts, concert tickets, dental plans, family portraits, furniture, travel vouchers, and books. Of course there will be plenty of fishermen and fisherwomen in attendance, so please ask you local tackle shop or fishing captain if they would be willing to donate some items or services for the night. Fliers can be downloaded from our web site, so please print them out and start getting them out there. If you are able to get donations, please drop me an email to let me know what you have so I can keep a running list. If you have any questions, please drop me an email at chris@amwny.com. I hope to see everyone there! Chris Paparo LIBBA #308

New Number for Reporting Fisheries Infractions to the DEC. We often hear a lot of complaining about obviously short blackfish, bass, and fluke not being returned to the water safely but when I ask if a report was called in the reply is “what good will it do?” A heck of a lot more then ignoring the situation! Please “give a damn” and if you are sure you see fishery size and bag limit laws being broken, put it on record what you saw! To call in an infraction of NY State’s fishing regulations you will now have to call only one number: 631-444-0250, in Brookhaven. That office will then contact the field officer and dispatch him / her to the scene. It would help if you programmed that number into your cell phone so it will be available to you on the beach! Thanks! Bill Townsend, LIBBA #621 & Steve Barrale, LIBBA #681 Fishing Contests Co- Chairmen.
