I just went to the Wright County Chapter banquet.  They had lots of great prizes including over 20 guns.  I did not win a gun but did get a trail camera, hunter safety vest and a number of other items.  Remember, most of the money raised at these banquets stays with the local commuity.  My chapter "Sherburne County" has the banquet scheduled for Saturday March 23, 2013.

I have gone to the shurburn county swampbusters 2 years in a row. The kids have all won great prizes. Last year my twins were both drawn early enough to each pick a youth22 but each opted for the youth bows instead.  Their resoning was that we have plenty of guns at home but they didn't have a bow.  Smart kids because they shoot the bows all of the time. Neighbor kids also now come over asking to shoot the bows. All of their parents just laugh because the kids all brag about it to all of their friends.

I love the banquets and what they do with the money they make.
Anything that is free is worth saving up for.
