Inaugural KPCAC Fishing Classic
On Friday, September 26th, we kicked off our inaugural KPCAC Fishing Classic festivities with an unforgettable Captain’s Party at Pear Tree Haven. The following morning tournament participants hit the water for a full day of fishing and friendly competition.
A huge thank you to our sponsors, the anglers who braved the rainy weather to take part, everyone who joined us for the Captain’s Party, and all who fundraised or donated to the event. Your dedication and support helped us raise more than $22,000 in net proceeds in support of the Berkeley Center. We couldn’t have done it without you!
