5th Annual
Tucker Hipps Bass Fishing Tournament
March 6-7 2026
The annual bass fishing tournament is one of our favorite ways to bring the community together while raising funds for causes that mattered to Tucker. Anglers of all ages compete for exciting prizes, while proceeds support scholarships for young leaders and partner organizations like Palmetto Boys State, Outdoor Dream Foundation, The Bridge Fishing Outreach and Doors to Freedom. Every cast helps us honor Tucker’s legacy and make a difference in the lives of others.
