Where do the proceeds from this lure sale go?

How does one order them?

Thanks,

Through Salmon for Soldiers website, I did not see them for sale yet but I assume you can call Silver Horde and find out more.

Dan-o,  I was the one that got this approved through Salmon For Soldiers. ALL of the money that is raised goes back into helping get soldiers and veterans out fishing.

I am on the board and know that 98% of all money raised goes back. NO board member gets any wages or $$$ for doing this. We are a true volunteer organization.  Give me a call if you need more info

It was an honor for me to do this for Aaron and the Blanchard Family. I talked to them before I went after it too, they were 100% on board with me making it happen. This has been in the works since last year, I couldn't make the announcement until the spoon was finished. I got to be the one to help design the spoon colors too, Silver Horde is a class act too, they worked with me and I got the idea and design approved by the Blanchard Family after I got the look dialed in.

Now I get the honor of having them fish with me on FISH 4 FUN  August 26th for the Salmon For Soldiers event in Everett   :tup:

I must be stupid but I can't find where to order these lures anywhere.  :dunno:

Perfect, Jim. 

Knowing that you're involved and supportive is enough for me.   Really appreciate your work with S4S.   

I was just listening to the radio about a scam being run, collecting money for wounded veterans..... but not getting to wounded veterans.  Low life scum. 

I keep meaning to drop into your work area.

Dan-o, I am now in the 2-10 building not at the D.C. any more .

elkaholic123,  the spoons are not out yet, we were only able to make the announcement of what the 2017 SFS spoon will be. As soon as they are available I will post on here. Will be about a month or so away from production at this time I am told.  They will not be sold in any stores, the only way to get them is from Salmon For Soldiers.

Thanks. Thought I was losing more of my mind.

Thanks, I just talked to Randy Shelton a few minutes ago and he told me the same, said to e-mail him and let him know I wanted some lures and he would put me on the list.
