Except for the weather, the live auction for the disabled vets brought in thousands. Our quilt brought in a nice price also. There are still alot of good people out there, people would bid on an item 200.00-300 dollar item and turn around and give it to a disabled vet to hunt with!! Some of the hunting bhuts were on hydraulics to raise the vet up in the air, pretty neat. We sold out withing 2 hours on our new striker/pot carriers and also our box call pouches. We had also sold out on all of our scroll wood working plaques which I wasnt expecting that.We raised around 500.00 just from us alone, not too bad. This is only one of the organizations we support, this is why I say we really dont make anything, when its all said and done, we look back on the year and had given away more then what we brought in. I wish I had the talent of you guys calling abilities, i would volunteer calling for some of these guys, just not that good at it.
God bless our young men and women for serving and all our other veterans from past wars!!(There was a wounded female soldier also)
These guys really put thier heart into turkey hunting, in wheel chairs missing a leg or whatever, makes you proud and sad at the same time. :smiley-patriotic-flagwaver-an

very nice
Thank you for helping our veterans.
Outstanding! Keep up the great work! :smiley-patriotic-flagwaver-an
Keep in mind, last year and the year before, the majority of our business came from here, so all of you helped get these guys and gals the things they need to hunt, if you wouldnt have been ordering i wouldnt have had the means to supply this stuff, so your a big part of this.
I forgot, Zippo made a one of a kind gold trimmed lighter to be auctioned, it went for 2 grand, and a Remington .45 model 1911 that had the NWTF in gold inlaid, it went for 2500.00.
Amen for people like you. Thanks for all you did for those vets......

Thank you. My son is a combat engineer in the US Army, I was looking at those young guys in wheel chairs and trying not to picture my son. We need to come home.
