Friends of NRA 2012 banquet #2

[Frogman]

OK, here we go with the rest of the pictures of  Blennerhassett Friends of the NRA fund raising banquet we held on Friday evening October 26 in Parkersburg.  Seems like when I try to post several pictures my computer hangs up so I have to do make a couple of posts??

Here are some more items we had for games, auctions, and door prizes.



A very nice painted saw blade donated to us for a prize!



The youth package.



Bird sculpture.



Some of the attendees checking out the games and prizes.

Some of the great crowd who attended.







Displaaying a pistol for one of the bucket raffles.



A happy winner!

We had a successful event and raised over $18,000 for the Friends of NRA.  These events are held all over the country.  Try to attend one held in your area.  Even better, find a local Friends committe and volunteer to help organize their banquet.  They will appreciate your help and you will be assuring the shooting sports of a bright future.  I am the treasurer of our local committee and it is rewarding to be able to give back a little to something I enjoy so much.
