80th Year for Sarasota Tarpon Tournament

1 min read

SARASOTA – This year is the 80th anniversary of the All-Release Tarpon Tournament.

The tournament was found in 1930 by the Palmer family of Chicago’s Palmer House Hotel. While the Sterling silver four foot high trophy resides at the Sarasota History Center, the competition is still very much on each year.

The event runs for five weeks, this year from May 22 to June 27. Find out more at www.sarasotatarpontournament.info
