Zona and his wife Karin are Honorary Chairmen of the St. Joseph County United Way campaign.

Zona, host of Zona’s Awesome Fishing Show, lives in St. Joseph County while four-time Bassmaster Classic Champion VanDam lives nearby in Kalamazoo. Hite, also a former Bassmaster Classic Champion, and Hackney, defending Bassmaster Toyota Angler of the Year, are stopping by on their way to Lake St. Clair for the final regular season Bassmaster Elite event.

“It worked out beautifully that the fishermen would be near our area this particular weekend and Mark and I are thrilled that they agreed to help out our local community,” said Karin Zona.
