Well Calvin, you have Fort Hays State, Kansas State and Kansas University not too far, and all excellent schools with scholarships for the achievers. Get her there as a HS sophomore and get her thinking about what could be. Where there is a will there is always a way.

Good deal Calvin,
My little Punkinhead is growing up every day. I've got a picture of her holding two nice flounder when she was 8 yrs old, and an identical picture when she was seventeen, standing in the same boat. (fish look smaller, cause she looks bigger!) Best part is, both days were Fathers Day! Now-a-days she doesn't get much time to fish with the old man,(Full time at Georgia Southern university) but she'll be attending her third Southern SXS this year, shooting her favorite shotgun in the world. (an LC Smith 16 ga. that originally belonged to the father (God rest his soul) of one of the best shooters that Team Parker has ever fielded! Not me obviously!!)
Sounds like you'll have enough time to break her in on a twelve or sixteen gauge before the Southern, since she wont be able to shoot her ten gauge in the Challenge events! Believe me, it'll become a family (You and her) tradition that you both will look forward to every year, and one that you wouldn't trade for anything in the world. They all have to grow up...but they don't have to grow away!
John
