We are a 501(c)(3) charitable organization of dedicated individuals in Middlesboro, Kentucky.  Each year, a fishing tournament is held to raise money so that in December, deserving children in the tri-state area (Bell County, KY; Lee County, VA; Claiborne and Union Counties in TN) can have a Christmas shopping spree.

This year, approximately 250 children will be given $150.00 each to spend.  $110.00 will be allotted for clothing and $40.00 may be spent on toys. In addition each child is given a new pair of shoes donated by a very generous local business. Recipients will be children from 23 schools in four counties selected by the faculty at each school. Those institutions are Bell Central, Clairfield, Middlesboro  East End, Ellen Myers, Elydale, Forge Ridge, Lone Jack, Maynardville, Midway, Pineville, Frakes, Fonde, Sharp’s Chapel, Springdale, Middlesboro West End, Ewing, Rose Hill, Red Bird, Page, Right Fork, Saint Julian’s, Keokee and  Yellow Creek Elementary Schools. 

The 42nd annual RoHo Fishing Tournament will take place at Beach Island Marina on Norris Lake TN. Tournament times are Saturday, May 5th 2012, from 6:00 AM - 8:00 PM, and Sunday, May 6th 2012, from 6:00 AM - 2:00 PM.
