Rained-Out Fishermen's Association Fun Day Rescheduled for Sunday

Oct. 20, 2008 — The Frenchtown Fishermen's Association will celebrate its fourth annual Fun Day from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday at the Joseph Aubain Ballpark. The original date was rained out, said Julian Magras, of the St. Thomas Fishermen's Association on Monday.
Prize tickets already sold will be honored at Sunday's raffle, Magras said. The day is packed with fun stuff to do — music, food and games for everybody. Children's kickball games are on the agenda, along with women's and men's softball teams. The most highly anticipated game is the traditional battle between the Frenchtown and Northside men's softball teams, Magras said.
Local seafood is on the menu, and drinks will be on sale.
DJ Jason Greaux will keep the daytime beat, followed in the evening by Cool Session Brass.
Funds raised at the celebration assist the local fishing community's efforts to preserve the industry and culture.
