Every youth hunt we load up a bag of hunting goodies for the youths. It is much apprecieated and some of these kids woud never get any hunting stuff if it was not for the "Goody Bag". See... huntingindiana.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=2010youthdeerhunt&action=display&thread=33517So, I am going to start working on the Goody Bags for the youths for this year. Just bought LED flashlights for all. I plan on hitting up retailers, manufacturers and anyone, anywhere who would like to donate to the cause. I will accept any and all help in this endeavor.If you want to help or know someone that will, please let us know. Thanks in advance! . |

I know I should have asked this the first time.... if a Sasquatch wanted to buy all the kids one of something, how many kids we talking?
My idea is to get something picked out and screw a couple of my co-workers into forking over some dough so that we can combine and purchase a bunch of whatever it is. Working at the mart I can threaten to kill the department manager if he doesn't order extra as well.
(it might be neccessary!) Lemme know.
Thanks!

Woody, I have 9 of the fifteen camo hankies ( woodland ). I bought all of them, but there SHOULD be more in pretty soon. There are some available in snow camo but I thought maybe that was less appealing? Heck, maybe I'll just get 15 of those too and then they can blow their nose in all seasons.  Nevertheless, you'll have 15 at least of some kind or another pretty soon. I'm still going to try and put the screws to a few co-workers. I thought I might print a few pics of the happy hunters...that ought to sway anyone! That would be OK don't you think? |
