ASCE to host Redfish Classic Fishing Tournament Fundraiser

The American Society of Civil Engineers will host their first ever Redfish Classic Fishing Tournament on Feb. 26, at 6 a.m., hosted at The S.A.L.T. Club. This two-day event will kick off with the Captain’s Dinner on Friday, Feb. 25, starting from 6 p.m., located at IBEW Local 479, followed by the fishing tournament the following day. The entry fee will cost $250 for each two-person team. The entry fee will include the Captain’s Dinner and their guest. More guests are welcomed to the dinner with an additional fee of $25 per person. 

The American Society of Civil Engineers, or ASCE, is LU’s local chapter of a national branch that is geared towards giving students practical knowledge for the future. Their goal also includes helping students with the possibility of continued education and how to manage their career once they become graduates.

The money raised by the ASCE will be used to help the organization continue with community service projects, competition entries and equipment, and field trips to build each member’s experience in their respected fields. The ASCE is open to all majors and students can register to join the ASCE in the Cherry Building lounge with sign up slips located on the news bulletin board.

Deadline for online registration to compete in the Redfish Classic Fishing Tournament will be on Feb. 20, and last day to register will be at the Captain’s Dinner on Feb. 25.
