The very first AGLOW Writers Camp took place in June in Green Bay, Wisconsin. A special thank you goes out to Brenda Krainik and the Greater Green Bay CVB for providing the wonderful accommodations and meals during the event. Yakima Bait, St. Croix Rods and Wolf Pack Adventures were the corporate sponsors of the six AGLOW Media Members in attendance.
Walleyes were the focus while fishing University Bay aboard the three Wolf Pack Adventures boats. Each of the Corporate Reps rotated through the different boats schooling the media attendees on the latest and greatest St. Croix Walleye Rods and Yakima Baits and techniques for making them bite!
Despite a couple of afternoon storms, one of them quite nasty, many fish were boated and everyone learned something new. The Media Members and Corporate Reps were all in agreement that the smaller format provided a much better environment for learning and networking.
More AGLOW Writers Camps are in the works. If you are a Media Member and would like to be considered, simply send me an email and tell me your area of expertise (hunting, fishing, etc..) and what type of media you produce and where. Please send that info to: aglowoutdoors@gmail.com .
