Was wondering if anyone here was attending the event in March in North Bend? Or if anyone has been to one an what to expect. Never been to any foundation events of any type, kinda looking forward to it.

No doubt it is going to be a good time with a room full of like minded mountain hunters! Live and silent auctions, lots of raffles for guns bows and high end gear; maybe even a sheep hunt! Check out wafnaws.com for banquet info. Mailings and the news letter coming out in the near future. looking forward to seeing you there.

So one of the sponsor members will actually win a sheep hunt? I've never been to this banquet, but it might be worth donating the money for a shot to go on a sheep hunt!

Great cause. You will have a good time.

Ya looks like a hunt for a life member in attendance, just trying to cough up the 300 bucks, weighing if thats good odds. plus life goes up to 500 march 10th.

Yep, it will be a good time. One lucky person will be walking out of the banquet with a $20,000 dall sheep hunt! Just be signed up as a life member ($300) and be at the banquet ($60) and the hunt can be yours. Plus, if you have a sheep mount you want to bring, we will be giving away over a $1000 in prizes just for bringing it to display. Doesn't have to be a WA sheep. All mounted wild sheep are welcome. The earlier you bring it the more chances you get to win (3-1 tickets depending on time) Top prize is your choice of a Mathews bow or Tika 270! We would like to hear from you if you plan on bringing a mount(s) but it is not necessary to call. (Glen 509 305-4187 or Bryan 360 584-2752)
And like Scree said, an evening hanging out with like minded people has to be a good time.

Is there an average number/guesstimate on how many lifemembers would be attending on a normal year?nwhunter

NWWA Hunter · « **Reply #10 on:** February 08, 2013, 08:56:25 PM »

I am a member and dont know but i would assume that as of now there's not many maybe 50. After that night I would guess that they sign up between 50-150 more. Theres usually not a ton of local life members in a chapter and they are capping registration at 300 people. It's a good conservation group and I would hope as many people as possible sign up and support thier efforts in conservation!

No, in prior years they had a general member sheep hunt where you bought raffle tickets.

starbailey · « **Reply #14 on:** February 09, 2013, 01:23:04 PM »

If this life member sheep hunt giveaway goes as good as we hope/think then we will absolutely continue to give one away every year. But we cannot do it without members and others continuing to support the Washington Wild Sheep Foundation.

How many tickets are left? I want to sign both my wife and myself up as lifetime members to attend the banquet, but it wont be until the end of the week.

I'm not positive on the exact number of people who have bought tickets for the banquet as of today. Earlier this week there were about 175 banquet tickets left. Maybe Ramslam will give us an updated count Monday. I know I'll be purchasing mine through wafnaws.com site tomorrow.

starbailey · « **Reply #17 on:** February 12, 2013, 08:56:36 AM »

No word from ramslam yet on how many seats left but I know I have mine! Better get em while you still can!

cem3434 · « **Reply #18 on:** February 21, 2013, 03:56:22 PM »

I know that there were tickets still available as of last night when I purchased life memberships and banquet tickets for both my wife and myself.
