General Meeting:  December 16, 2008                                         Steel Workers Hall – 180 Rock Island Road – East Wenatchee

 

Game Feed Date Change:  Our 2009 game feed has had to be moved to a weekend date, due to a booked schedule at the conservatory.  The 2009 game feed will be Saturday, February 21st and next year we hope to move it back to the 2nd Saturday in February.

Game Meat:  If you are considering donating wild game meat to the up coming game feed pleased consider the following: (a) let Ron Bruno know as soon as possible or no later than Feb. 1st; (b) what kind of wild game meat it is (bear, moose, deer, etc.); (c) the amount needed is 60 lbs.  For info contact Ron at 884-9369 Cell: 679-2359.

Game Feed Tickets:  Game feed tickets will be available at the December meeting.  Adult membership is $20.00, game feed ticket will be $20.00.  Youth membership will be $15.00 and the game feed ticket $15.00.  Youth is considered is age 16 and under.  Adult lifers must pay the $20.00 and youth lifers must pay $15.00 respectively for the 2009 game feed.  A great thought:  game feed tickets would make a great Christmas gift.

Game Feed Tickets 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 cannot be given to anyone else.  This is a very important item of business and needs to be fully understood and really just as it was last year.

 

Lifetime Memberships:  Reminder:  As approved in December of 2006 the lifetime membership is $500.00 which does include a jacket.

 

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.  Again, this is just an extension of what we had to do at last year’s game feed.

 

New Home For Stanchions and Plywood:  Thanks to Jim and Joan Pritchard, the stanchions and plywood will have a new inside storage sometime late this coming spring.  Many thanks to the Pritchard’s.

 

Special Thanks To Observe:  December is a good month to note thank you’s and appreciation.  Many “thank you’s” are posted around the club for all the good things that are being done for wildlife.  Unfortunately only a small fraction of these “thank you’s” are getting to the people that should see them so we will send it in the newsletter and please share.  If it wasn’t for our wives and significant others who allow us to go out and work for our wildlife, our projects would not get completed.

Hour & Miles Donated:  Ron Poppe say’s, “keep those hours and miles coming to him”.  They keep adding up.  His phone is 662-3957.

December Program:  A mistake was made last month concerning Anthony Novack (WDFW staff member).  He will be our December program talking about the reintroduction of wolves into Washington.  The wolves are coming whether we like it or not and Anthony is charged with the responsibility to speak to us about the issue.

Reminder to all:  We welcome any trophy whether large or small, pictures and etc. from 2008 back to whenever.  It is your trophy and your story.  If you need help getting them there on Dec. 16th, call Matt Gutzwiler (663-1526), Bill Stegeman (663-7529), Ron Poppe (662-3957).  Let’s make this a real nice showing of animals taken.
