Thanks for this offer. My 10 year old was quite excited and it made for a great writing project for him. Maybe my 8 year old will get his finished and sent in as well. I think my wife attached a few pictures of ther first season.

I will remind my wife to work on it with him. If they don't get it completed I will help him with it when I get home from work this weekend.

Congratulations to everyone that entered the essay contest. I absolutely loved reading them! We ended up with 15 entry's so I'm going to send everyone some lure and a trap I'll be contacting everyone to see what kind of lure and trap they want. Thank you all for participating! We'll do it again next season. Ted

I sent everyone a message asking what lure and trap you wanted. If I somehow missed one of you be sure and message me letting me know! Thank you to all of the entrants!

My boys have been watching the mail and fed x/Ups trucks with anticipation . Its neat to see them get so excited.

Thanks again this was a great project for them.

Edit: Their package arrived today. They came running in more excitement in there eyes than xmas morning. Looks like they will be setting steel for some flat tails, along with coyote, fox, and coons. With an emphasis on beaver in those new traps. wink

Those bridger #5s are nice. The nipple on the dog was new to me.

My wife took a short video of the boys saying thanks she is working on sending you.

Ted,
Thank you!
Wow, my oldest son, 8 yo...was so excited he called me at work yesterday to tell me the trap and lure arrived in the mail. ...he was even more ecstatic when I showed him that you had his first and last name stamped on the underside of the Bridger 5 special.
Thank you

I am a little late at posting Emma's thank you note. She made a video thanking Ted's fur shed and Dobbins lures, but I am not sure how to post. Thanks again.
