Fishing tournament registration due Thursday, May 18

Worzalla, an employee-owned book printer specializing in printing high-quality children’s books, cookbooks, and hardcover bestsellers, has partnered with Prime Water Anglers (PWA) to support the 21st annual Spring Wisconsin River Bass & Walleye Classic. PWA’s fishing competition brings community members together to promote environmental awareness and tradition. Proceeds will go towards PWA’s local volunteering efforts, along with the organization’s Kids Fishing Clinic held in June, a 2-day event educating youth on the fundamentals of fishing.

“By participating in the annual fishing competition, community members can help continue to develop a program that works to provide social opportunities and a place where people can be active in community life,” said Brianne Petruzalek, Vice President of Human Resources at Worzalla. “The fishing competition allows participants to explore the outdoors, make connections, and build positive community traditions.”

This year, Worzalla is donating $1,000 to the competition to contribute towards supplies, prizes, merchandise for participants, staffing, and more.

“It’s important that organizations, like Worzalla, support their local community programs,” said Jeff Rautio, President of Prime Water Anglers. “One of the most important investments that can be made to support a community is to make a continued effort to engage with local programs that provide enjoyment and a sense of belonging to residents.”

The fishing competition will take place on Saturday, May 20th at The Waters Pub and Pier, 736 Old Wausau Road, Stevens Point, WI. Raffles and prizes will be distributed throughout the event including a prize for the biggest catch and winning team. Community members interested in registering can reach out to Jeff Rautio at [email protected] by Thursday, May 18th. A mandatory rules meeting for all participants will take place on Thursday, May 18th at 7 p.m. at Rookies Sports Pub, 3425 Church Street, Stevens Point, WI.  Additional details about the competition can be found at Stevenspointarea.com.

Worzalla’s donation to the Prime Water Anglers Spring Wisconsin River Bass & Walleye Classic is just one of many donations and initiatives launched to support the local Stevens Point community. Worzalla’s extensive community outreach includes donating books to libraries and schools, sponsoring literacy and learning events, participating in community-wide fundraisers and charity events, and printing various popular children’s books including the popular Diary of a Wimpy Kid series.
