Mid-West Open rescheduled

Wednesday, January 9th, 2008

If you have noticed the last four days or so, the untimely warm weather has decimated the ice on Wampler’s Lake.  The tournament that was set up for the third weekend of the month has been pushed back, with an alternative date set up as well.  This is the email that was forwarded to me to pass along.


It is with great regret that we have to cancel the Midwest Open Ice Fishing Tournament that was scheduled on Jan. 19th and 20th. We are moving it to Jan. 26th and 27th and if for some reason that will not work we will go to Feb. 16th and 17th. I am very sorry to have to do this but we lost the lake last night and the forcast just does not look like we will have enough fishable ice to put on a quality tournament. We will refund your entry fee if you can not make the following weekend. Please let us know either way so we can keep track of who is in and who is out. One bright spot is that the 26th and 27th are open at the hotel so those who were going to have to travel now will be much closer. Again we hope you can make the next weekend.
Thank You
Tom Knutson
