Title: Seattle Sportsmen's Conservation Foundation - Silent Fundraiser ends April 3
Post by: Bob33 on March 21, 2021, 11:52:00 AM: Looking for ways to make a difference for wildlife conservation right here in Washington? The Seattle Sportmen’s Convention is holding a silent auction which is active now and ends April 3 at 7:00 p.m. Pacific time. While our annual in-person convention will not be held as it has in years past due to COVID, the silent auction gives everyone a chance to participate.

The online auction is live at https://www.onlinehuntingauctions.com/Seattle-Sportsmen-s-Conservation-Foundation-2021-Auction_as70957

Our goal is to raise funding for local projects such as Washington State Mountain Goat Surveys, Blacktail Deer Hair Loss Studies, Hunters for the Hungry donations, funding of hunts and fishing trips for veterans, youth outdoor and educational programs, Mountain Goat relocation, and Pronghorn Antelope re-introduction into eastern Washington.

The silent auction has a growing list of wonderful items to bid on including hunting and fishing trips, vacation packages, game cameras, Kenetrek boots, a Kifaru pack, a Backou Mule eBike, wine, tires, taxidermy credit, art, and the Washington State Mountain Goat tag.

Registration to participate in the auction is quick and easy.

Post by: wa.hunter on April 04, 2021, 12:11:08 PM: Thanks for the support. You will both enjoy your hunts..Scott Miller has been a great donor for many years. We use to take 10-12 youth there each year for an over night and great shooting. I bought Tony’s hunt last year also and your wife will also have a great hunt..the Lind’s have also been great supporters of our fundraiser and usually buy the head table..I purchased Duane and Mike’s donation for the beef. Bought it last year and it has been fantastic eating and mixing the hamburger with the rutty bucks we shot last year..
Sure missed the face to face..
As a heads up we did an antelope survey in Feb. and things are looking very good, we found several groups with over 60 animals/ group. Numerous smaller groups. Pretty much all of the antelope we have brought into the state through these fundraiser effort have produced what is now born and raised Washington antelope.
