Thought I'd bring this back to the top, along with a suggestion.
As we all realize, the future of our sport and our respective organizations rest on the youth, and insuring enthusiasm among them should be a priority. Chris' efforts to provide awards to youth participants and Bill Kempffer's contribution go a long way toward drawing more youth into our sport and insure that all stations on the Dove Field are occupied with the next generation shooting our guns long after we are gone !
A suggestion--- even though several vendors have offered prizes to youth participants, may I suggest that we. as individuals, consider a cash donation to purchase--say-- Gift Certificates from the Pro Shop for youth participants? Two things are accomplished---- all receive something of value, and Bill kempffer is rewarded for his generosity !
If this idea has merit with you, please contact Chris (christopher.g.dunlap@gmail.com ) and advise him of your expected donation.
See you soon !
