Because our 2024 ice fishing tournament was cancelled due to the unseasonable temperatures and inconsistent ice conditions, we have been working hard to find ways to continue our fight against cancer.

We are excited to share the news of a new fundraiser, organized by the same great employees of Alexandria Industries, called Hooked on Hope. This 18 and older event will include a live and silent auction, music, 50/50 cash drawing, food trucks, and more. It will take place on Thursday, June 13, 2024, from 6-9 p.m. at Adler Ranch in Alexandria, MN. All proceeds benefit our local Relay For Life.

Thanks for making a difference and we hope to see you on the ice in 2025!

Fishing for the Cure Alexandria Industries Fishing For the Cure Ice Fishing Challenge

Anyone who has attended will tell you that the Fishing For the Cure Ice Fishing Challenge is one of the most fun and meaningful fishing tournaments ever!

What's better than a great day ice fishing with family and friends, while also knowing you are raising money for a good cause?

Our 2023 tournament continued with its reputation for being a fun, family friendly event. We broke our attendance record with 1,564 people – moms, dads, kids, grandmas, grandpas, aunts, uncles, cousins, and many friends – having fun catching fish and watching the leaderboard to see where their name would land on the list of 100 prizes. Altogether, with support from so many people, we raised a record $125,000 at our 2023 tournament!

Alexandria Industries, American Cancer Society, Relay For Life, Fishing For the Cure, national award winner

Prizes were awarded for the top 50 fish in two fish categories – large fish (Northern and Walleye) and small fish (Crappie, Perch and Sunfish). The person with the smallest fish that made the leaderboard during the tournament, won the biggest fish prize!

The Fishing for the Cure event honors those who are fighting cancer, those who have fought cancer and won, and those who have suffered from cancer and are no longer with us.
