Congrats to Ray Gifford and Ken Howden for bringing in 27.11 lbs at the Allstar Bass Nite Series tournament held last night on Roosevelt Lake! Even though they are holding only 4 fish, they had a limit including the big bass weighing 7.47 lbs. They took home $1,430 in total prize money. Tim Jacobs & Jimmy Savoini managed to get their fish to the scales to weigh in 11.42 lbs for 2nd place, even though they had an "issue" with an island in the dark. Chris Perkes and Buddy Randall rounded out the top three finishers with 11.34 lbs.
We appreciate all who came out to fish with us and want to thank Momma Lou's Cafe in Punkin Center for the excellent biscuits and gravy. For complete results and pictures please visit allstarbass.org.

Arizona's Rural Communities Rescue State Parks from Closures
Good News! 23 Arizona State Parks will Stay Open
(Phoenix, AZ - May 19, 2010) - The Arizona State Parks Board voted today to keep five more State Parks from closing on June 3 by directing Executive Director Renee Bahl to sign unique management and financial agreements with rural communities to keep each one open.
"The State Parks Board, a volunteer group of seven members, has voted in the last three months to negotiate with counties, cities and parks friends groups to fund a total of 23 State Parks to be open into the next fiscal year. The real key now is that we need every Arizonan to use their State Parks as often as possible," said Bahl. "We want the public to know that the Board and staff are focusing on keeping State Parks open because the fiscal impact and loss of jobs from closed parks would be devastating to these rural towns and we believe every Arizonan deserves a robust State Park system."
According to Parks Board Chairman, Reese Woodling, "We have been successful in finding solutions to keep State Parks open, but these are only short term measures. It is a miracle that these communities have raised the funds to keep these parks open so far this year. Arizonans should be proud that so many concerned individuals have stepped forward to lead the communities to cobble together these monies."
"Unfortunately we have lost $10 million dollars from the Heritage Fund to support State, County and City parks and our operating budget has dropped significantly. In two years, the total amount of sweeps and diversions from twelve fund sources that benefit Arizona conservation projects has been $71 million."
Here are some of the highlights of the community efforts: Bashas' Family of Stores (130) raised $20,000, Dasani Water raised $5,000 for recycling programs, Apache Junction businesses raised $26,000 (Lost Dutchman), Tubac Historical Society raised $35,000 (Tubac Presidio), Friends of Tonto raised $8,000 (Tonto Nat. Bridge), Wickenburg/Salome raised $30,000 (Alamo), Riordan Action... [Read More]
