Karen Hill 1940-2013 

Our thoughts are with the friends and family of Karen Hill. She owned and operated Sports Port in Hyannis for 45 years. In 2007, she sold the business and retired. Karen was an avid fisherwoman and a generous supporter of the OAC for many years.

OAC Name a Great White Shark Contest

In December of 2012, following Greg Skomal’s awesome presentation at the OAC, the Board of Directors voted in favor of a $500 donation to Greg’s Shark Research program. In return, Greg promised to name a shark tagged in the future on our behalf. We would like our youth members (15 and under) to submit a proposed name (1 submission per youth) to our club manager at [email protected] or 508-420-4336 by Friday May 10th. The winner will be announced at Youth Striper Night the following Friday May 17th.

 

 

Today’s Cape Cod Times mentioned a new white shark license plate program that will also benefit this shark program:
