PARKER Gun Hall of Fame

[Art Wheaton]

The PARKER Foundation will host the PARKER Gun Hall of Fame Banquet and induction ceremony on April 22, 2016 honoring Charlie Herzog Sr. Hershel Chadick, and the late Jack Puglisi. Ruth's Chris Steak House in Cary, NC will again be our choice in conjunction with the Southern SxS Championships. Please contact Allan Swanson for tickets. Space is limited.

For those of you who have not ever attended, this event is to die for.
I attended for the first time last year- I was fortunate to get a ticket, only because one of our members could not attend at the last minute.
The food and venue are top shelf.
Of course, the guests are as well- the legends of the PGCA that we hardly ever see attend this event.
This year looks like an especially good time. Two icons of the Dealer world will be honored.
And most dear to us, our own Farmer Charlie Herzog will be honored. I am sure he will bring some Golden Towel specials for us to drool over.
I can't wait.

Will Herschel's guns be on display?

[Art Wheaton]

Bill Mullins advises that he sold all his guns a few years ago but he is expected to be present albeit his health will require assistance.

[Art Wheaton]

We are closing in on capacity for the Parker Gun Hall of Fame Banquet and this reminder is a "heads up" for anyone considering attending to call or email Allan Swanson for tickets.
Although we sadly lost Hershell Chaddick a short time ago, his family intends to come and receive his medallion. He was pleased and looked forward to coming even though in declining health and requiring assistance.
Charlie Herzog Sr will be on hand to surprise us some fine guns.

Seeing Mr Herzogs guns alone will be worth paying the price of the meal, which in itself is outstanding. I am anxious to see some guns bought with turnip money! Charlie has an outstanding collection of rare Parkers, I know it is a chore to haul those guns for such a long ways and I thank him for doing so ! I can't wait, Gary

Right you are Gary.
But Charlie will have some big shoes to fill after your display last year.
I am sure he is up to the task.

The PG HOF dinner was a huge success last night. More information to come in PP but the display of guns by Charlie Herzog was breathtaking.
Two A-1 Specials and a whole lot more.

Thanks very much - I can't wait for the Summer Issue of Parker Pages
