Pete That is probably a given. Every sportsman’s dinner I have been to goes that way. Sounds like a good time up there. I hope to attend next year.

Lot of neat stuff, prizes, raffles, etc. Bring lots of that SE money with you when you come to Fairbanks! P

I was on the far side of the room and had my hearing aids turned down a bit, but it appeared like the eventual high bid came from AKHowler. THANKS J.R.! Pete

We should probably expect to see a price increase for #9's soon! (And a big thanks also of course go to Chuck for his awesome carving.) pb

Congratulations to the ATA and that's going to keep thing's going well for the association's bank account ! As always the ivory trap is stunning to say the least ! One of these years I hope to attend the Fling the extended stay in Great Falls back in November and December put the skids on attending. Stay Safe out there ! Allan You're friend along the snare line . Allan
