    24. Comments of things we are satisfied with in past tournaments Great! Keep it up, Good job! Just perfect! Thumbs Up! I am satisfied! Smile! Come here for fun! Good site choice; Enjoy the camping and getting together with families/friends;

    25. Continued OFCD website for sharing information about the club, tournament schedules and the results. Family campsites that have sandy beach, outdoor pool, and playground.

    26. Continued Overall I am impressed with the OFCD and I don’t want to appear biased as I am also on the board. I have many years experience with different organizations and OFCD has the most impressive website. I have searched through many deaf fishing club websites in the USA. We are better than them.

    27. Continued OFCD includes families in summer which is also a big plus +++++ allowing children to interact and learn from anglers. Only one thing for improvement is for individuals to think positive and not complain over little things. If these individuals want to do something to make things fun then they should act on them and not leave it up to the board and others to volunteer to get things done.

    28. Comments of what we want to suggest for improvement of OFCD Echure for ladies One week tournament Cash prizes instead of cheques for winners Cash prizes to give to rookie(s) at each derby Need a more accurate scale Need a professional digital fish scale

    29. Continued Need to know what the weekend plans are; i.e fish fry and meeting Need more participants (more anglers) Someone in charge of contacting anglers by emails re: boat partners and cabin mates before each derby Money prizes to be awarded to the team on the winning boat at each derby instead of individuals.

    30. Continued Before announcing final results of winners, the OFCD president should introduce new participants. Also the president should ask for any feedback about the current derby so we know the concerns and are able to revise or add rules at the next AGM to deal with those concerns.

    31. Continued Organize a fall walleye derby in October or November (2) Find a large area for campfire for all to be together close to sites so families can participate.
