Everything is coming together very nicely and we wanted to share with you some additional information. We have about 50 tickets left so if you and/or your friends have been putting off buying tickets, do not wait any longer! No tickets will be sold at the door. If you are a life member or are considering joining, don't forget we are GIVING away a Stone's Sheep :IBCOOL: hunt in the Yukon to one lucky life member that is present at the banquet. As of a few days ago, only 110 life members have purchased banquet tickets. Those are pretty good odds for a $30,000 door prize! Tickets can be purchased online at washingtonwsf.org
More information can be found below. Our most current updates can be found on our Facebook page and our website washingtonwsf.org
Thank you and please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions.

Good luck on the draw. I think all of us lifetime members understand that these are probably the best odds we will ever have to draw a hunt like this.
If you draw that hunt I will buy you a drink :tup:

What a fantastic opportunity to win a hunt of a lifetime! There is no place like the Yukon to go hunting especially with a stone sheep tag in your pocket! Good luck to everyone.

Brian,
Last year the dude that won was from the Claw.
I am looking forward to hearing the same home town mentioned but with another character :drool:

I cannot find anything to click on for hotel information regarding special pricing?
The hilton in Issaquah had a time limit on the special room rates. I think it was up Feb 20th.

Still, I think there is only about 140 of us that have registered for the banquet. NO BETTER ODDS TO DRAW A SHEEP HUNT ANYWHERE!?

Bob Starbailey was talking about the number of life members registered (you must be a life member in attendance to be eligible for the stone sheep drawing), not the total number of folks registered. He is right probably the best odds anywhere.

Seriously, our table had some pretty good odds there for a bit!
Thanks for the hospitality Falcon, that was a great time!

I've been going for 3 years and this is by far our favorite banquet to attend every year. There are some great people and most are willing give back selflessly. Anyone know how much the final tally was for the "put one back on the mountain" donation?
I believe the total for the put one back donation 28.5K! Now talk about a selfless group of conservation minded sportsmen.

I also want to thank everyone who brought a mount for the display. By far the best ram display I've ever seen anywhere! 48 shoulder and life size mounts along with atleast 20 ero heads! Just amazing to look at all those great rams.
thank all who support WA WSF.
Bryan
