The latest from CURRENTS
As we reflect back on 2024 and how busy it was for our chapter, we also look forward to 2025. We celebrated a very successful banquet and are in preparations for our 2025 banquet set for April 3 at the Stafford Centre and it is not too early to reserve your table for you and 7 of your friends. This will be our best banquet yet, come and be a part of it.
We co-hosted 2 Kid Fish events with Sienna Plantation and Riverstone communities and what a joy it is to watch the smile on the face of a youngster when they land their 1st fish. Already planned for a May 4, 2025, event is a Kid Fish event in New Territory.

Our Casino Night membership drive was held November 6, 2024 at the Knight Of Columbus Hall in Sugar Land with a friend catfish dinner for all who attended and a Casino Party. Special thanks to Board Member Gary Blanchette and his volunteers at the KC Hall for their help and outstanding hospitality. Plans are underway for our upcoming Membership Drive event.
2024 also came with a sad note, on Wednesday, September 25, 2024 we lost one of our dearest Board Members Bob Hilliard. Bob and fellow board member and wife Barbara lived in Sargent and on several occasions opened their home to host the weigh in for our Annual Presidents Cup fishing tournament and always furnished everyone with a BBQ meal. A plaque in his honor will be placed at the Lions Club Mike Lebron Park in Sargent. The family asked to consider a donation to an organization that was very important to Bob, The Coastal Conservation Association of Texas. You can make the donation at ccatexas.org/donate.
I would like to give a Texas Size shoutout to each board member for your continued support throughout the year. Your efforts don’t go unnoticed. 2025 will be our best year yet. We also would like to thank the entire staff at Sign Systems for completely rebranding our Kid Fish Trailer, thanks for making us shine as we drive down the road headed to another Kid Fish event.
