Additional pediatric services will be made possible at Homestead Hospital because of funds raised by this tournament and other events sponsored by the Homestead Hospital Foundation, said Bo Boulanger, CEO of Homestead Hospital. As an avid angler, I am excited about this fishing competition. Last year was our first year and we had a blast, with great fishing and great weather. It s the ideal way to pay tribute to Lucerne s love for children and the Everglades backcountry. More than 1,000 children each month are treated in that emergency unit.
Fifteen pediatricians are on staff.
