BowtechTurkeyHunter Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 First off I want to thank each and every one of you that helped make this a HUGE success. I had a blast doing this with each and everyone of you. I have made a lot of new friends and have gotten to know a lot more of you because of this. The fundraiser itself was a blast we had 2 bands there "Quarter Round" and "DNR" (Do Not Ressesate) Dakota played the guitar with Qaurter Round and Chuck played the drums.... what a musically talented family this is let me tell you ... They managed to auction off almost every single item donated and raised over 5500 dollars just with the silent auction and the admission to the event and with the Realtree Check added $1555 to the amount WTG everyone ... Dakota loved the Bino's donated by Mewldeer I bet I seen him pick them up 40 or 50 times throughout the night to show everyone ... I know they will really come in handy when he goes on that hunt for that Elk thanks a ton Mewldeer. Brian and I did have some fun with Dakota though ... we told him that we were gonna give him the gun between the bands ... but then that got delayed some becasue of setup and all so we told him we were gonna have to wait till DNR got done ... he was a good sport about it for sure ... I tried to Auction that gun off to get more money for the Cases but he would have no part of that ... if you wanna see a smile .... Don't mind me it was almost midnight when this picture was taken ... look at his smile lol ... he had enough adrenaline for all of us there. Anyhow here is the link that allows you to scroll through and see most everything about the fundraiser Dakotas fundraiser Album Heres a few more pics for ppl that dont want to wait with dialup Dakota Jammin with the band ... Awesome guitar player let me tell you. Dakotas reaction to me trying to auction his rifle The Check I had blown up to present to them (they got the real one too) thanks VH and buckee Anyhow thats about all I have right now I will probably get more emailed to me later from the Cases and when I do I will post them. Sorry it took so long to get these up I was burnt out I got up at 7 to make the trip up to South Dakota and we were there until midnight helping the band put there stuff away ... then we got up and had breakfast with the Cases at Cracker Barrell (thanks Chuck) and then I drove back home what a long 2 days ... If i had to do it all over again I would do it tomorrow in a second. Thanks again for everything you all have done you have deffinately made me and my wife proud to call ourselves Realtree Forum members ... God Bless Steve & Kimberly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakota Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Re: Dakota\'s & Family fundraiser Yeah, it was an awesome night and I had a TON of fun!
