Title: Donate your Deer hides to a great cause!
Post by: KimShelton on October 23, 2014, 11:13:18 AM: Hello!

My name is Kim Shelton and I Instruct two teen programs at Wilderness Awareness School, a non profit, in Duvall.

If you don't do anything with your hides, consider giving them to me to help teach and inspire the skill of brain tanning to our future generations.

You can contact me at 218-760-6258 or kimshelton356@hotmail.com
I will try to get back to you as soon as possible.
I would greatly appreciate any hides that would otherwise be left in the woods,

Thankyou for your time and energy,

Kim

If I get another one, how far are you willing to travel?

Knowing that may get you more offers or at least weed out the ones that are too far away.

Hopefully you will get a response from the folks who will be hunting during the late seasons! An excellent cause- glad the traditional skills are being taught.
