General Meeting:  December 18, 2007                                         Steel Workers Hall – 180 Rock Island Road – East Wenatchee

 

Game Meat:  As mentioned in the last newsletter, Ron Bruno is looking for some variety in wild game meat since we have enough elk.  He could use cougar, moose, bear and etc.  Since Ron has reduced the number of dishes being served, he has had to increase the amount of meat from 40 lbs to 60 lbs per dish.  For info contact Ron at 884-9369 Cell: 679-2359.

Price Increase For Game Feed Tickets:  It was voted that the 2008 game feed ticket will go up $5.00.  An adult membership will now be $20.00, game feed ticket will be $20.00.  Youth membership will be $15.00 and the game feed ticket $15.00.   Adult lifers must pay the $20.00 and youth lifers must pay $15.00 respectively for the 2008 game feed.

 

Game Feed Tickets Now Non-transferable:  Due to a host of problems generated during the game feed, any game feed ticket purchased by an individual, can only be used by that individual and not be given to anyone else.  This is a very important item of business and needs to be fully understood.

 

Silent Auction Area:  Something new will be tried at the silent auction table.  We will be closing that area down in units,  rather than the one large unit we have had in the past.  Example:  If we have 3 tables of auction items, we’ll close one table every 3 to 5 minutes or so.  Throughout the bidding process, you’ll be informed as to what the closing price is listed at.

 

Lifetime Memberships:  Reminder:  As approved in December of 2006 the lifetime membership is $500.00.

 

New Gambling Law:  According to the Gambling Commission Laws, any ticket that has been altered such as bent, folded, or otherwise mutilated in any way can not be accepted if drawn and must be thrown out.

 

Workers:  All game feed workers must be a current member prior to the game feed beginning.  There will be no ticket sales after Friday; February 8, 2008.

Department Report:  Due to the changes at the District Office it has not been possible to get updated information for the newsletter at this time.

 

November Program:  Thanks to Bob Bugert (C-D Land Trust) for his current update on the Wallace / Burts property.  Also thanks to Ken McMance and Nick Jones from the DNR on road closures and other issues in the Nanhum / Colockum Wildlife areas.  The gentleman who was going to speak on the Grizzly bear recovery program was not able to make the December meeting but will come in March or April instead.

Reminder to all:  We welcome any trophy whether large or small, pictures and etc. from 2007 back to whenever.  It is your trophy and your story.  If you need help getting them there on Dec. 18th, call Matt Gutzwiler (663-1526), Bill Stegeman (663-7529), Ron Poppe (662-3957).  Let’s make this a real nice showing of animals taken.
