For the eighth year, Malta Walleyes Unlimited gave out $500 scholarships to Phillips County students. This year's scholarships were given to Lily Maxie, Chayana Stolem, and Payton Clausen. Konner Kuehn also received a $500 scholarship but is away at college.
Malta walleyes Unlimited honored young anglers last Saturday night, giving each certificates and fishing poles. Those children honored were (not in order) Kailynne Knoll, Therese Hanson, Kasen Boardman, Kasen Kluck, PJ Bibbs, Rory Highlander, Keaton Kluck, Shelby Snellman, Shaun Snellman, Hunter Tremblay, Mason Alderman, TJ Siewing, Lena Tremblay, Tia Siewing, Cede Mayer, Bobby Mayer, and Lavida White.
Hundreds packed into the Malta City Hall gymnasium last Saturday night to celebrate the 30th Annual Malta Walleyes Unlimited Banquet with food, friends, and fun.
"I really want to thank all the volunteers, businesses and of course, all of you, for once again coming out and supporting us," Malta Walleye's President Jim Mayer told the banquet goers. "With your help, hopefully, we can keep kids fishing and using a tackle box instead of an Xbox."
Bucket raffles, gun raffles, silent auctions, live auctions, fish races, 50/50 split the pot, and the awards for young anglers and scholarships for Phillips County students all highlighted the night and helped raise money for all the events the Malta Walleyes host each year, including the upcoming Annual Camp Walleye which is tentatively scheduled for June 15 this summer.
The Malta Walleyes also have a new website - http://www.maltawalleyes.com - and are always looking for new projects and activities to undertake, so go check them out if you have any ideas or suggestions.
