2022 St. Croix Customer Appreciation Day Planned for June 18

All are welcome, in-person or virtually, to this fun-filled celebration of anglers

St. Croix Rod invites all anglers to join one another in celebration of fishing at its 2022 Customer Appreciation Day, scheduled for Saturday, June 18 at the St. Croix Factory in Park Falls, Wisconsin.

"Our St. Croix family looks forward to Customer Appreciation Day every year because it's such a fun way to connect with our anglers, who are at the heart of everything we do," says St. Croix Vice President of Marketing, Jesse Simpkins. "It's a chance for us to roll out the red carpet and give anglers all kinds of fun opportunities and reasons to join us here at our factory in Park Falls. Just as we never stop improving our rods, we try to make our family-friendly Customer Appreciation Day an even more rewarding event for our anglers every year. We'd love to see you there in person, but we've got a bunch of great virtual participation options for anglers who can't make the trip."

Anglers attending Customer Appreciation Day are drawn into the St. Croix family and experience something no other rod manufacturer offers on such a personal level. The unique event will include fun opportunities to learn about the rod-building process, informative fishing seminars from St. Croix pros, casting classes, a free brat lunch, ample prize drawings, special deals on St. Croix Rods and Apparel and other items, plus incredible live music by UMG Nashville recording artist, Kassi Ashton, and Joe Bucher and the Top Raiders.
