Warriors and Widows Salmon Derby to be held in August

 

April 27, 2017



The 3rd Annual Warriors and Widows Salmon Derby is scheduled for August 30 and 31.

This year 35 Warriors from the Warrior Transition Battalion at Joint Base Lewis McCord and widows will again fish with 10 firemen, sheriff’s deputies and state policemen.

Last year’s derby was truly a community event that achieved the organizers’ objective. Christopher Price from Palmer, Alaska stated “I had a complete blast. I’m glad this little town came out and embraced us.” The community will do it again this year.

A key player in hosting the derby, the Hotel Cathlamet, is again donating all their rooms for the event. Other contributions have been committed by local individuals and businesses. Donations made payable to VFW-WTB may be sent to the VFW, 295 West Sunny Sands, Cathlamet, WA 98612. The funds received will be used exclusively for this event.
