ICO BENEFITS FROM 24TH ANNUAL “BARNES STREET OPEN” HORSESHOE TOURNAMENT

It was a beautiful summer day on the beach in Nags Head on Saturday September 8th, 2018 for the 24th Annual Barnes Street Open Horseshoe Tournament. A great day was had by all while playing horseshoes and fellowship on the beach; all while raising money for local charities.  Interfaith Community Outreach was honored to be chosen as this year’s recipient, receiving a check in the amount of $1520. Our sincere thank you to Mike O’Brien, with Kempsville Building Materials for his hard work in organizing this tournament. A big thank you to the corporate sponsors, Kempsville Building Materials, Bonzer Shack, Tortugas Lie and Hurricane MO’s who helped make this event possible.  Thank you to all participants for another successful event – your generosity allows ICO to help our neighbors in need that are facing a temporary emergency crisis.  In 2017 ICO assisted 996 families positively affecting the lives of over 2281 individuals and was able to give back to our community over $275,000 in monetary outreach.  ICO was able to help these residents with utility bills, rent, mortgage, medical deposits, physician appointments, dental emergencies, prescriptions, cancer travel reimbursement to get to medical appointments, cars donated, referrals, insurances, hurricane relief and any other emergency crisis fulfilling the basic life needs for our neighbors in need who are faced with a crisis emergency, or faced with cancer.

Alice Kelly Memorial Billfish Tournament

Fishing is fun. It’s a combination of skills and a shared outdoor pursuit in a unique, mesmerizing environment. It’s the electric jolt that comes with every hook-up and the satisfaction of conquering a worthy adversary after a spirited battle. It is a universal sport that knows no age limitations or gender bias.

And yet it can be even more. Fishing can unite communities in a common cause, one that impacts lives while honoring a cherished friend. It can grow every year and raise more money in donations. Do that for nearly three decades with flair, in every shade of pink imaginable, and you’ll have the Alice Kelly Memorial Ladies Only Billfish Tournament.

Alice Kelly Memorial Ladies Only Billfish Tournament

A last minute decision to compete in the 29th annual Alice Kelly Memorial Ladies Only Billfish Tournament paid off for Off Duty, a 80 Viking run by Capt. Mike Everly. The all-female angler team released two white marlin, a sailfish and finally a blue marlin at 2:37 Sunday afternoon to add an extra 50 points, earning the Top Boat honors for the tournament. The Alice Kelly format is release only and based on time. The team consisted of Kristina Shields, Deb Mears and Kristen Constantineau, with mates Rob Constantineau and Daniel Longstreet. Off Duty is based in Stuart, Florida and is owned by Paul Mears.

Sensation, with Capt. Dale Britt at the helm of the 52 Jarrett Bay, was named the second-place boat, also with four releases (two whites and sails apiece). General, a 55 Buddy Cannady, was third based on time, also with four billfish. Wade Fickling runs the boat.
