This announces the 2013 winners for the (two) shooting competitions sponsored by the AH Fox Collectors Association at the Northeast Side by Side. Hopefully we'll get some additional comments here from folks who were there at the Fox shooting stations and at the booths in the tent. The Northeast SxS continued today with Hidden Hollow's Main Event.

For 2013 we had a total of 145 competitors, comparing with 97 last year = a 49% increase.

Overall we had another sterling day weather-wise. The AHFCA extends sincere "thank you'" to all who competed in our two shooting events.

Some random pics of the gallery and activity at the shooting station:

Congratulations to all of the shooters who won or placed. I spoke with J.D. at dinner Saturday evening and he was pretty pleased about it.

Congratulations to all of the AHFCA members who worked so hard to make the Bo-Whoop event as exciting as it is!

[Dave Suponski]

I would like to echo Dean's comments. The AHFCA did a wonderful job putting on this event. Danny had a great time shooting at the SBT event. Congrat's to all the winners they worked hard for those win's!

J.D. bought Linda and me a drink at dinner Saturday night. This was an unexpected gesture for my friend, who has a reputation with the "dollar" that rivals mine. Thanks and congratulations to Mr. Shank.
