We will be in attendance with our waterfowl mount display trailer. This is a great organization that is working on trying to trap some brant to install GPS trackers so we can learn more about the Arctic brant.

This year’s list of special guests is headlined by Marty Hanson from Hayward, Wisconsin. Marty is considered by many the most talented U.S. carver and is the subject of a documentary due out this summer.
t the event we will have a sponsor board that you can put your name on for $100. Money raised goes to our scholarship for students going into wildlife management. At the end of the event a drawing will take place and 3 people will be chosen. First pic first choice and so on. A Beretta A300 12 gauge synthetic, a 20"x16" Mariners sign and a smoker will be the thank you to the winners. Must be present to win. In addition a few vendors selling hunting collectables will be present. Vintage decoys, old shell(s) boxes, calls and the like.
At the park we will be located at the 2 big covered areas so rain or shine we have you covered!
