RE: local banquets
 

I've been to 1 already this year and plan to go to at least 1 more,maybe 2.I always bid on a print or 2 in the live auction and on the collector edition call.Must say that I was rather bummed that the NWTF has replaced the box call with a glass call.Always would like to win a gun too.I've been lucky enough in the last 5 years to win 3.

RE: local banquets
 

I've never been to one, what kind of stuff can you win there?

RE: local banquets
 

There is a new chapter forming near me.This will be my first chance to attend a banquet.

RE: local banquets
 

I better be going! I'm the VP of my local chapter and wouldn't miss it for anything. Anyone in the Western Washington area you're invited! Check out http://lakewashnwtf.tripod.com We're hosting our banquet on Sunday, March 7th.

Hey Wacker, don't let a first time banquet for a new chapter give you a wrong impression and don't expect too much. A banquet for a new chapter is a very difficult thing to pull of successfully so try not to be disappointed if you don't see too much. Our chapter is four years old and our banquets are just starting to get to where we want them.

Go! you will have a great time and meet other hunters. I live on Long Island and we have our chapter Banquet in March every year. You can win everything from a month call to a shotgun. The auction is great prints and other art work, custom calls ect. contact NWTF if you need info

Im going Friday night (2/27) to one in Waynesboro GA. NWTF-Burke County Swamp Gobblers

I went last year and won a door prize of a nice framed Wood Duck print the hanges on my living room wall.

Hopefully I can win a gun this year!:D

I'll be putting on my 2nd one on Mar. 20th, I'm the president of my local chapter. I think their a lot of fun(when your not working it;)) nice way to meet some new hunting partners and learn a couple things. And get some cool wall hangin's fot thre living room[8D]

RE: local banquets
 

l always go to at least 2...We have one coming up April 17 and one May 25. I figure its one way we as hunters and sportsman to give back something and help make the future better for our kids and grandkids. The NWTF is a great organization...for the price of a mambership, the magazine alone is worth the cost.

Mike, what is the cost to go? I am in Agusta, and looking to go to my first NWTF shindig.

Thanks, Robert
