All warrior participants will receive a pack of tackle provided by sponsors.  Top finishers will receive trophies for their accomplishments. All participants will receive dinner on Saturday night, breakfast on Sunday morning, and a BBQ lunch after the weigh-in Sunday. Lodging for warriors on both Saturday and Sunday night is provided.
