Same dates as the third leg of the Tri-State which will be run out of Westerly. Can't even work them together because Tri-State is catch and release.

Just my luck, I dont belong to a club for 1, and for 2 I will be out of town those dates.
Sounds like it will be a lot of fun, and definitely for a good cause.

Catch and release + respecting Mother Nature will help keep Stripers in good numbers for our future generation to enjoy fishing as we do today.

Excellent! Cookout will be at 2:30 at the CRMC lot entrance for East Beach (we were here a few years ago during the MS Tourney)
Directions: Get to Route 1 in Charleston RI (However you get there) and take East Beach Rd to the parking lot at the end. The End is a few hundred yards down from where it makes the sharp left to the parking lot (not the lot on the right just at the sharp left).
