Here' s a couple of things our banquet does:
1st we have an early bird special on our sportsman raffle tickets, $300.00 worth for $100.00 if they buy thier tickets early.
2nd We offered 20 guns this year.
3rd Word of mouth and mailings worked well for us but word of mouth was the best, have guys that have gone to your banquest tell people how nice they are.
I try to bring atleast one new person every year to our banquet.
I know we make Golden Gobbler every year.
I have been a member since 1987.
I hope that this little bit of info has helped.
