🎣 Tight Lines for Troops 2025: Honoring Our Heroes Last weekend, we proudly celebrated the 10th Annual Tight Lines for Troops Fishing Tournament in Manistee. While rough weather canceled the fishing, the spirit of the event lived on as veterans and volunteers gathered for a heartfelt celebration meal. This nonprofit event prioritizes WWII and Korean War Veterans, Purple Heart recipients, disabled veterans, POWs, and all who have served. In past years, over 50 boats have taken 300+ veterans out on the water, with additional shore and pier fishing opportunities. 🎖️ Munson was honored to sponsor the 2025 event with a $1,000 donation and a team of dedicated volunteers. We’re already looking forward to calmer waters and another unforgettable experience next year! Learn more about this amazing cause at 🔗https://tightlinesfortroops.com. (fb)
