Fishing for Freedom Quincy

WHAT IS FISHING FOR FREEDOM - QUINCY?

Fishing For Freedom - Quincy is a no entry fee bass, catfish, and crappie tournament that pairs our Warriors (Active-Duty Military and Veterans) with our Boaters (professional anglers, avid tournament fishermen, fishing guides, and local outdoorsmen) for a fun day of fishing on our local fisheries. Fishing For Freedom - Quincy cannot give back all the lost time away from the great outdoors during deployment, but we can give back a weekend. We do that by providing our Warriors with a weekend full of entertainment and enjoyment of the great outdoors with their fellow Veterans and Active-Duty personnel, as well as the general public, at no cost to them. This event is designed to provide our Warriors with events that range from a meet and greet to promote camaraderie, our tournament for IL Veterans Home residents, a Heroes Banquet with a meal, raffles, presentations, and auctions, and finally a day of fun tournament fishing on the Mighty Mississippi River or Mark Twain Lake. We also have a private lake(s) where we take our Warriors who cannot easily fish from a boat to ensure their safety and well-being.
