Ranger
Boats Ultimate Bass Challenge Puts the Fun in Fundraising
for Northwestern.
The 2007 Ranger Boats Ultimate Bass Challenge drew more than
300 people to Lake Minnetonka on July 27 and raised awareness
and thousands of dollars for Northwestern Health Sciences
University.
At the Bass Challenge, 50 teams participated in a fishing
tournament led by bass professionals with fully stocked Ranger
Boats. The winning team included Roger Van Riper, DC, a 1992
graduate, and his friend Chris Wass.
The event also included cruises on Lake Minnetonka and a
Beach Party at the Lord Fletcher's in Spring Park, Minn. Along
the shore, crowds gathered to watch the "weigh-in" show where
tournament participants weighed their three largest fish.
Additionally, people enjoyed free food, awards, raffles, and
contests.
"This is a great event," said Dave Stude, DC, a participant
in the tournament. "I really like supporting Northwestern
and its mission."
Many prizes were given away during the event including a
Ranger boat valued at $30,000. Joe Gallagher, the owner of
the organization that helped set up the event, won the boat.
