“Many thanks go first and foremost to Monsignor (James) Gaddy,” she said. “He is the greatest ambassador of all in this joint venture as he encouraged everyone to contribute to the cause of this event in some way, shape or form. The generosity of all of the sponsors was truly amazing! From the Blue Marlins to the Angelfish, each contribution has blessed all the students at OLQH School.”
Others who helped make the day a success included school principal Joann Wallwork as well as Diane Jackson, Pam Fontenot, Barry and Donna Barger, CheryLeblanc, Patsy Beverung, Merle Mouton, Susan Pruitt, Dawn Witherwax, Meris Courville, Bob Crooks, Terry Guillory, the ACTS Group and Ed Theriot’s crew from Port Aggregates.
“It was a whale of a success,” Jaketl said. “What a great event to end the 2009-2010 school year as this worthwhile fundraiser supports what we believe in most…the mission of Catholic Education.”
The top youth division spot went to Lauren Gayle who boated a 5.49- pound stingray.
