This past Saturday I was involved in a tournament for the military called Tournament of Heroes. The event is held during the Dallas Summer boat show. Great event, the soldiers had a good time, the VIP's had a good time, and I had a good time.
There were a few elite guys involved,Gary Klein and Kenyon Hill, along with local fishermen.There were 34 boats (all Tritons) in the tournament. Some were paired with a soldier and others had a soldier and a VIP. The day started with military band, national anthem and a flyover. Then a flotilla type parade out of the marina. The weigh-in was held at Market Hall in downtown Dallas which is around thirty miles from lake Lewisville. We had a police escort in which the highways were shut down to allow us to stay together in a parade of boats.Here are some pictures.This is the third year and it keeps getting bigger and better every year. P.S. I believe we finished 4th.
