muskrat Report post Posted April 10, 2014 IMPORTANT: OK folks - we are very sorry for the inconvenience but due to circumstances beyond our control, we needed to change the venue and the date. Last year's banquet was awesome and the committee is committed to providing a high quality event while raising the most money possible for projects. New date is June 28th. Banquet will be held at the KC Hall in Chandler - 644 E Chandler Blvd, Chandler, AZ 85225 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Browns Report post Posted April 29, 2014 Will you be auctioning another NM Antelope hunt? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muskrat Report post Posted May 8, 2014 Hey - AZ Desert Ridge Outfitters is providing a fully guided Coues hunt in 24A. Now if you're sharp, you're already figuring that the banquet date is AFTER the draw. That means if you plan on bidding on this hunt, you have to put in for Hunt 1089 or 1090! (and get drawn!). It needs to be one of the November hunts.This is an awesome donation, it just takes some prep work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muskrat Report post Posted May 13, 2014 Anyone from the board plan on attending? A reminder that online ticket sales are open! Still accepting kickass donations too ;-) (Like that awesome guided Coues hunt ^^) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tjhunt2 Report post Posted May 13, 2014 Glad to see things are coming along Marvin. I'm waiting to see how my schedule at work will be. I probably will be there with my wife. We had a blast last year at the cwt table and the food was outstanding not to mention my wife won a gun. Thanks for the reminder. TJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
