We are sorry to have to announce that there will be no Hawg Fest in 2010

Some life changes within the staff here at OGF just won't permit us to devote the time and resources necessary to continue this event.

To all of you who participated, volunteered and supported the Hawg Fest for the last 6 years, we thank you. It was only through all of you and your support that the Hawg Fest was able to grow to become the best walleye tournament on Lake Erie.

We have been very active over the past year in negotiations with two other groups that were very interested in taking over the Hawg Fest. OGF would have still been involved but in a different capacity. Unfortunately, while both groups really wanted to take ownership of the Hawg Fest, in the end neither felt they had the resources to run an event of this size. Our door is still open to any groups that would like to and are capable of taking over the Hawg Fest in the future.

It has been a great six years for us. We hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did.

Thanks again,

OGF Staff

There are at least three of us in WBSA that know how much went into the Hawgfest and while we too are proud of the results we more than most understand the need to step down from it. Good job OGF!. You and the rest of the OGF staff will be delighted in how peaceful your summer will be this year!
