Fundraiser auctions for the Blanchard family/Colockumelk

[Machias]

Very nice RadSav!!!

Probably the wrong place to post this but, after getting approval from BLRman I am in the works to have a custom logo printed on Aaron's favorite Blaze and Yellow Blazer vanes.  Haven't gotten the quotes in yet from Bohning and AAE, but our hope is we can give away enough vanes to each archer who donates or enters the Joshua Cup to fletch at least a dozen arrows.  Sort of a "Take the memory of Colockumelk hunting with you this year" type of thing.  Wouldn't it be cool if every bowhunter you ran into in Washington this season was shooting two orange and one yellow vane with a Colockumelk logo on it?

Still working on a logo that will fit the limited space.  But this is what I am thinking... 

ill make another donation for those......Id be honered to use those vanes....maybe it will be goodluck and ill get my first elk

Thats just NEAT.    I'll put one through the heart of a critter at 7,000 feet this fall.

  Words Can't Describe What Is Happening Here!

Sure you can!  It's what happens when you get a group of proud Americans together.  Proud of their country, proud of their service men and proud of their friends.  We will take care of our own.  Never under estimate a group of passionate people.

Thanks for the free eyedrops.

I will pay double the cost if proceeds are donated , put me down for 150 of them .

After consideration on which auction to provide, I think the bow hunt is what we are going with. My intention with the weekend get-a-way for the Blanchard family was to donate the stay and to donate any funds raised through the auction. Looks like it may be very hard for JL to keep track of all who would donate. If BLRMAN wants to PM me I think  Wendy and I can still do something for a stay for the family N/C.         So here is my auction donation:

Semi-Guided Archery Hunt for two. Arrive afternoon Sept 6th and check out morning Sept. 9th. Here is what you get: Lodging, Meals, Access to private land, Scouting prior to your arrival, stand and blind placement,then you hunt on your own. I will spend the first day  showing you where I have seen the game. You can hunt mule deer,whitetail deer, bear, and I have seen a couple elk on one of my leases. Value w/tax is $800

Thank you Jackelope for all your work on these auctions. Let me know what else I need to do. Pics are from a couple of our properties.

Just got word, thanks to Actionshooter, that Butch Whiting from Kryptek would be donating some gear for auction.

He also sent this to us.

........I was struck by someone reposting a picture that CPT Blanchard posted of himself flying at Fort Carson, CO.  The very distinct “Sharks Teeth” were a signature of Renegade Troop, 4/3 Armored Cavalry Regiment, out of Fort Carson…The unit I commanded, and both Cleghorn and I fought in Iraq…CPT Blanchard must of came into the unit shortly their after…We must have just missed each other.
 
Attached is rendering of a painting that was commissioned by Lockheed Martin showing the very distinct aircraft markings of Renegade Troop…This was a battle we fought in called “Operation Restoring Rights” in Tal Afar Iraq. 
............

We would be very honored to donate some Kryptek Items to help raise funds for the family…We will donate a Kryptek Koldo Rain Jacket and Pants, Solid Gray, along with a Kratos Synthetic insulated layering jacket…Links below:

Awesome!!! I was going to call Butch but you beat me to It.

If we can not get the timing to work out on the vanes we might try the same idea with a patch of some sort.

I like the idea of a patch.  Is both an option?  It will go on my pack.

I've been looking at their clothing and pattens for a while, their action in supporting auctions here will have me buying some of their gear for sure, nice job Kryptek
