We would like to personally thank Fairdale Farm Tractor & Equipment Co., Inc., Keith Lilliston State Farm Agency, and Anchors Down Seafood Company for supporting the Onancock Bay Challenge.

It truly is one big circle of community support—local businesses supporting ESAC, our fishing community supporting the Bay Challenge, and the event giving back to the Chincoteague Bay Field Station.
