The Outdoorsman
Usually when organizations in our area take on the responsibility of hosting a special event it is done in a classy and professional manner. The AIM International Walleye Championship, held on Winnibigoshish was no exception. The sponsors, Lake Winnie Resort Association, Northern Star Cooperative Services, White Oak Casino and L & M Supply did a wonderful job to make sure the tournament came off without a hitch. If I missed a sponsor I am sorry because an event like this needs all the help it can get.
