A big thank you to all of you who attended the Wild Game Feast. I think we had 15-16 Outdoorsmen show up to help out both setting up and tearing down. You all were awesome!

Hats off to Glenn Morrison for planning the event and arranging everything; the church, linens, rental equipment, generators, prizes, guest speakers, food, center pieces, etc. That's a lot of logistics and once again you brought it all together very well.

I'd also like to make sure we all remember to thank more than a few wives and other family members that worked right along side of us. Michelle Chard, Jody Morrison, Patty Foster are just a few of the wives I remember. Justin Chard, Jerry Brassaurd's youngest son and Frank Foster's daughter pitched in as well. I know there were others that I've missed and I'd really appreciate it if you'd reply to me with the names of those I missed. Even with 15-16 of us working together there was still plenty to do for these other volunteers. We need to make sure they know we appreciate it.


Next Outdoorsmen Bible study is Tuesday January 20, 7:00 PM at Smith's in East Helena

The following meeting is Sunday January 25, 5:30 - 7:00 PM at Starbuck's on Prospect

Saturday January 31 at some time - Outdoorsmen ice-fishing at some lake somewhere
Obviously I will need to get you more details as soon as I can.


Saturday February 7 - Outdoorsmen Family Ski Day at Great Divide
We don't have a meeting place set up yet but Hannaford seems a logical choice.
Remember, you need to have payment, in full, to Keith Newmeyer by Super bowl Sunday (2/1/2009). At last count Keith had 37 people signed up so it seems like we will meet the 40 person requirement to get the discount.
Please contact Keith (new dad) Newmeyer for more information.
