I am a member of the Northeast Iowa Chapter, and have been for some time. They put on a great banquet. It is amazing the work that goes into one of these banquets. They always have a good meal, numerous items for the auction, and what everyone is there for- the gun raffels. I would guess at least 25-30 guns get given away every year. It is not cheap but the money goes for something that we all have a passion with. Last year our chapter bought and donatedbows for our local park and rec. Alot of kids got exposed to archery because of this. My advise would be to join and check for yourself.
