[Bob33]

There are still a few days left to apply

"To apply, have the youth hunter send a brief essay describing themselves and why they would like to take part in this great opportunity! All applications must be received by July 15, 2016. "

Thanks Sattle-Puget Sound Safari Club!

Ding ding ding - the final submission bell has rung.

I received a volley of applications this week, totaling 23 total applicants.

I would like to thank the Hunt WA board again for the bumps and advertising. I said before that last year we only received 4 applicants and to see the applicant number grow six fold is a true testament to the power of social media and word of mouth.

I expect so.

The youth hunters that are selected should expect to be notified sometime in the month of August.

I have fielded a few emails for when the youth hunters will be selected...

The committee to choose the hunters is currently going through each of the applications to make the final selection. Right now the plan is to choose 10 hunters and 2 alternates (in the event one of the chosen cannot go due to scheduling issues). Our committee will then present those names to our Board of Directors for approval at our August board meeting (next week), and I plan to send emails to all of the applicants with the results the following weekend.

Ok folks I just sent off a bunch of emails to all of the applicants (both successful and unsuccessful).

I would like to thank the HuntWA board again for promoting this, I think this helped spread the word.

We selected 10 youth hunters and 2 alternates in the event someone has to back out.

On a related note: I could not find contact information for two of the applicants. If anyone knows the Hopkins or Hinners families (they sent hand written letters so I do not have email contact) could you have them shoot me an email at woods.rossb@gmail.com so I can let them know the results?

Much appreciated, and thanks again.
