Hundreds and HUNDREDS of Prizes to give away...

Nationwide
Jul 1st 06:00 am - Jul 31st 03:00 pm 2021
Save JT Benefit Tourney

This is a charity event to help a very special young man in his battle with an extremely rare disease. Jason Borofka is a member of our kayak fishing family. On stage at the Bassmaster kayak championship he shared the story of his young son and to say it touched all of us is an understatement.

Fellow angler Joe McElroy promptly donated his second place winnings on stage. This was the inspiration to see just what all we could do collectively to impact the future. The outpouring of support has been nothing short of awe inspiring. You will be competing for prize packs from the top pros, baits, rods, batteries, PFD's, gift cards, kayak kushions, and various swag.
The winner will also receive a championship belt that reads JT's Champion. With your entry you are entered in a raffle for an Old Town kayak. While we are attempting to spread the prizes out as much as possible, the real “win” here is having a direct impact on the life of a child.

Thank you for your support! https://www.facebook.com/ryan.lambert.9 ... 3038408332

Here is a little info on the HUGE movement that has been started to support JT. This is a month long kayak tourney running from July 1st to July 31st. Your five biggest fish for the month. All public waters are eligible. This is a kayak tournament but anyone is eligible to participate in the auction and all donations to SaveJT.com are greatly appreciated. The tourney its self sits at 334 anglers registered which puts us over $16k raised in three days. This is unbelievable but I want to see 500! Visit tourneyx.com or use your app to search Save JT under the tourney name. Thank you!

Today marks the first day of the SaveJT charity tourney and I just received some awesome news from JT’s dad Jason Borofka.
“Talked to the TPI Lab Doc Palidino. They are so excited because they have a awesome couple Grad students that are dedicated to the TPI lab and research we might be able to hire 1 or 2 of them for at least a year with the money so far. This will speed things up for a cure 100%. They are hoping to be able to run a 24hr lab”.
This is the result of the money we shave raise SO FAR with plenty of time left to join in the event or participate in our live auction. Grab your hawg trough or ketch board and hit the water!
I love this and thank you all for getting behind this little fighter

And BOOM! Just like that we hit the goal of ONE THOUSAND kayak anglers in a single tournament to save a young man’s life. That’s $50k directly to the research lab to find him a cure. Thank you again to all the sponsors, guides, outfitters, organizations, and my friends that helped make this idea a reality. Love y’all long time!
