Still taking TBF of MI 2006 State Championship entries

[djkimmel]

We are still taking TBF of MI 2006 State Championship entries because we are cross-promoting with the BFL event the day before us also on the Grand River out of Riverside Park.

The state championship is Sunday July 30 out of Riverside Park on the Grand River. We will be sending a 12-angler team to Wisconsin in September from this event. You need to join a TBF of Michigan club if not already a member. (You need to be an FLW Outdoors member also - join separately at http://www.flwoutdoors.com and get a 25% discount by using the code 'federation.')

You can join my club - The Bass Boys for $30 to be eligible. The tournament entry is $100 and include big bass. If you join with a boater/nonboater pair, you are both guaranteed to fish in the status you join in (boater or nonboater of the pair). Go to the TBF of MI home page at http://www.greatlakesbass.com/michigantbf/ to sign up or call 517-882-8902 if you have questions.

From the Wisconsin TBF Northern Divisional this September, the top two anglers from from Michigan (1st place becomes a boater, 2nd place becomes a nonboater) go on to a lavish TBF National Championship next April possibly in Alabama. National Championship April 19-21, 2007 - location to be announced very soon.

The top boater and nonboater from each division (we are the northern division, 1 in 5 or 6 chance for you) at the national championship go on later in 2007 to the BFL All-American.

The top boater and nonboater from the All-American go on to the FLW Tour Champsionship.

Also, to the TBF national champion:
    *  "Living the Dream" contract for the winner of the Federation Championship.
          o Fully-paid entry fees into the six (6) qualifying FLW Tour events held during that calendar year, or fully-paid entry fees into the five (5) qualifying FLW Series events held during that calendar year.
          o The use of a wrapped "Living the Dream" branded Ranger boat powered by an engine of FLW's choice.
          o The use of a wrapped, "Living the Dream" branded vehicle chosen by FLW.

Additional benefits of participation:
    * FLW will reserve guaranteed berths in the Stren Series for TBF state champions, provided that such champions enter one (1) Stren Series division and compete in all four (4) Stren Series events in that division. The champion must also pay entry fees for all four (4) Stren Series events in that division to be guaranteed the berth.

    * FLW will provide priority registration to TBF boaters and co-anglers who are dual TBF-FLW members into the Wal-Mart Bass Fishing League (BFL) events if they enter by the priority entry deadline with a counterpart (boater with a co-angler or co-angler with a boater).

    * FLW will provide priority registration dates to TBF co-anglers who are dual members into the Stren Series ("Stren"), the Wal-Mart FLW Tour ("FLW Tour") and Wal-Mart FLW Series ("FLW Series"). The early registration time period shall be available to dual members after the early registration for Ranger, Stratos and Champion boat owners and prior to registration for the general public.
