MDHA - Sherburne County Chapter Banquet

[deadeye]

It's time to sign up for the 2013 Banquet.  Thanks to many of you last year we had a very successful banquet.  Remember the majority of the money raised at the banquet goes to support local shooting sports and youth education.  The Sherburne county Swampbucks chapter donates to 4-H Shooting Sports, Archery in the Schools, as well as providing scholarships for youths to attend Forkhorn camps.  See the MDHA web site for camp details.   http://mndeerhunters.com

So far it looks like 3 of my kids want to go so there will be 4 of us going this year.

[deadeye]

Great!  I think we will have 5 guns on the youth raffle.  I guess that means they will go for the sling shots.    That's an inside joke. 

[dakids]

Nope, not this year.  They all have bows and they all say that the guns are what they want.  Now they wont get drawn for a gun.
