After all, he is the reason Trapperman exists. We could do an auction to get it funded. We'll need someone with the expertise in this area to make sure it is properly set up and functions correctly. Surely with the number of folks we have on here, there is someone who knows how this works. What do y'all think?

Great idea, we already started up the Defense Fund since we found out only pennys out of every dollar actually go to help anything. At this rate the next move will be to start your own nation wide association, lol. Not my circus, not my clowns.

She sure has her stuff together, and we're blessed to have her. We've got time since the first scholarship won't go out until late summer 2024. We'll probably have an auction to fund it this coming spring.
