As posted in the Wareham Courier,
The Cape Cod Canal Reigon Chamber of Commerce is developing a new broder- based event in place of it's Annual Striper Tournament.
The tourny ran for 14 yrs,awarded an average of $10,000 annually in grants for marine education, conservation and fisheries resource management.
In short " The board felt that diminishing member intrest signaled that it was time for a change"
They will continue to fund some marine related programs.
