The Fifth Annual Jake Saufert Memorial Fishing Derby took place on Gull Lake on February 27th. Many fishing families gathered at Brownlows Landing for a day of fishing fun and fund raising.

And after all of the fishing tales were told and all of the donations counted, over $3500 was raised for The Smiles Thru Lindsey Foundation.

The Smiles Thru Lindsey Foundation is geared towards providing mental health awareness and education through school programs, public speeches, and fundraising events. To date, over $30,000 has gone towards training and education programs in our community.

Tamara Saufert and her family were once again grateful for all of the support, "We are so thankful for all of the support the event receives. Without the kindness and generosity of all our volunteers, donors and participants, this event could not possibly be a success."
