This is for young trappers under the age of 18. You can have a chance to win a $100. gift certificate for first place, and $75. for second and third place. The artist, Marnie Pepper, who does he drawings for the Kid's Corner asked to have her payments held to help with the prizes. What a nice lady!

Articles are to be written by the young trapper and be a minimum of 600 words. The deadline to submit your article will be May 28, 2018. The winners will be announced in the July/August issue of Trapper's World. The articles will be featured in Trapper's World.

You have your choice of gift certificates to Sterling Fur, Minnesota Trapline Products, Dakota Line or Juniata Valley Trapper Supply.

I don't know if you have to be a subscriber to the magazine, but I'll find out and let you know.

I thought this was something that needed to be spotlighted, because it's something positive that they're doing to help the young trappers.

Thank so for letting us know! If you find out if you have to be a subscriber that would indeed be helpful.

I sent Tera an email, and I'm waiting to hear back from her.

Thanks!
