Bass Tournament Nearing

Organizers of this year's Fort Frances Canadian Bass Championship are making a final push for more anglers, sponsors, volunteers and spectators.

The event will be held for the first time indoors at the Memorial Sports Centre in less than two weeks.

Chair Tom Fry says the need for volunteers is just a critical.

"There still some things happening at the Sorting Gap Marina," says Fry. "That's where the boats will be coming out and going in. All that stuff that took place before is still going to be happening but now we have to get them over to the arena and inside. It's split venue that's going to require a few more volunteers."

Fry says there's also room for more angler teams.

Those interested can register by visiting the Championship office at the Fort Frances Chamber of Commerce building or by calling 274-0316.
