The Morgan Nick Foundation, using their "Picture Them Home" campaign has teamed up with Bassmaster Elite Series pro, Casey Scanlon. Scanlon.

 

Scanlon, in his second year of competing on the Elite level with B.A.S.S. , will display two photos of missing children on his wrapped Toyota Tundra truck and wear the Morgan Nick Foundation logo on his 2013 pro jersey.

 

"Picture Them Home" is a program that traditionally used law enforcement agencies to display the photos of missing children on the back of police vehicles. Scanlon's wrapped vehicle will cover over 35,000 miles this year and give the missing children's photos exposure from the Mexican to Canadian borders as the Bassmaster Elite Series crosses the country.

 

The photos will be on display as Casey participates in the 2013 Bassmaster Classic, the premier championship of professional fishing, on February 22nd through 24th in nearby Tulsa, Oklahoma. More than 100,000 are expected to attend as 53 of the world's top anglers compete for the coveted title and a first place purse of $500,000 on Grand Lake. Scanlon, who qualified for the Classic by winning the Bass Pro Shop's Central Open at Table Rock, Missouri in 2012, will display his truck with missing children's photos at the BOK Center in Tulsa at the heavily attended, televised weigh-ins during the week, as well as on Media Day which precedes the event.


The Bassmaster Elite Series features 100 of the world's top bass professionals. They travel across the United States in their brightly wrapped trucks and bass boats, drawing attention not only on the highways and tournament sites, but at fuel stops, restaurants, motels, etc., not to mention a national television, internet, and print audience.


Missing children's photographs and recovery information will be rotated on Casey's truck throughout the year.
