Well, thanks to Christine's fine field journal & pictures (it looked like a beautiful day!) of last years event - I think I have been convinced & will most likely go ahead and volunteer as a "Trail Guide" for this years event. It looks like a great event and I could probobly fit right in and help out. I have been a Hunter Safety Education instructor here in IL for some time now so I could do the Conservation Education, Firearm Safety, Hunter Education and of course one of my favorite events - BB gun range (See me @ National Hunting & Fishing Days, Silver Spring State Park, annually).

October 7th, huh? Hey at a minimum it's a free lunch! LOL
