2014 Biggest Blue Crab Contest

[Ron]

Rich aka Tattoo has asked me to help him organize the Biggest Blue Crab Contest again this year.

The fee this year has not changed:   $5.00 per person.

As always, the intention is to be able to do a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place.   This depends on how many people enter.   If there are enough entrants to have excess money to cover Rich's expenses for the awards, additional moneys will then be distributed to the winners in a top prize down manner.    Alternatively, if Rich isn't up to doing awards, the total pot will be split among the winners as it was this year.

The rules of the contest remain unchanged from previous years.   To refresh everyone's memory, they are listed below.

#1 All entries must be postmarked by April 1st.  
#2 Contest starts APRIL 1st and ends DEC 1st  
#3 MUST be alive of freshly caught.   No exceptions.
#4  Must be a MALE Blue crab.
#5  Must summit a CLEAR picture with a ruler to verify the size in this subforum.
#6 In case of a TIE the earliest or first picture summited will be the winner.    


Send entry fees to:   Ron Meischker, 5 Chestnut St., Somers Point, NJ 08244.   Make sure to include your real name, your screen name, address and phone # with your entry. Once your fee is received you will receive Board Message from my noting it's receipt.     If you wish to pay by Paypal, boardmail me and I will go over the procedure.

You can also turn in your entries in person at the BCA Crabfeast on March 1st.   As entries come in, I will list the names here.
