This will mark the fourth time the prestigious championship, which annually shines an international media spotlight on the nation’s best weekend anglers, will be held in Hot Springs.

Hot Springs has hosted a number of record-setting FLW Outdoors tournaments, including the historic 2007 Forrest Wood Cup where Scott Suggs of Bryant, Ark., became the sport’s first $1 million winner. The event drew a record crowd of more than 60,000 fans to Summit Arena and the Hot Springs Convention Center over the course of four days. Hot Springs also hosted the 2005 Forrest Wood Cup and the 2004, 2001 and 2000 All-American championships, each of which set fan attendance records.

Like the Forrest Wood Cup, the All-American will feature a Family Fun Zone and Outdoor Show with children’s rod and reel giveaways and a Ranger boat giveaway on the final day of competition.

Details:
The three-day show will be held at the Hot Springs Convention Center. The Family Fun Zone and Outdoor Show will open at 2 p.m. Thursday, May 29, and Friday, May 30. On Saturday, May 31, the show will open at noon. Weigh-ins each day will be held in Summit Arena at 4 p.m., and the Ranger Boat winner will be drawn from the crowd during the final weigh-in. Admission and all activities are free.

An exciting week where contestants from all four corners of the state come to compete for the title of Miss Arkansas. The winner will represent the state of Arkansas in the Miss America Pageant. Over $60,000 in scholarships will be awarded.
