Always a great time and they give away a lot of guns and hunting trips every year.  I will be there, I hope we see a lot of Hunt-WA people there.

I will be there as this is a great fundraiser. Your opportunity to purchase a Auction Permit for Whitetail Deer, Blacktail Deer or a Mountain Goat along with hunting and fishing trips from around the world. This is the place to pick up an Africa trip for a very reasonable price. New this year if you buy one of the live auction items you will be in a drawing for $5000 cash. There are usually less than 100 items selling for $250 and up. Where else can you get a chance of 1 in 100 to win $5000 cash? Lots of raffle items too with ladies diamond bracelet worth $4000, predator hunting package worth $3000, a wall of guns raffle and many more. Got to see it to believe it. This is not your cookie cutter banquet. There should be 50-60 exhibitors too.

I might have to hang on to this thread I might be in the wet side that weekend  :dunno:

If you have to pick one, Saturday.
Thats when all the better auctions happen.
Even if you're into dropping the money on the auction stuff.

Saturday night only is $100.  Friday night only is $60.  Both nights is $125: you may as well pay an extra $25 and go both nights.

It wouldn't be at the Meydenbauer but it is the only facility large enough to hold an event this size. Access is very easy off of 405, you won't have to deal with Bellevue itself.
