Excellent turn out inspite of the cold weather. Legal defence dinner was sold out too. Great bunch of people with lots of laughter and commerodery.

I agree with 20scout. Was probably the best turnout for a winter meeting in years. Was good to see.

Glade to hear it was a good turn out!
Sounds like the banquet was a success!
Hopefully there was a good turn out for for both carlson fur, and FHA drop off too.
I would think some fur was brought in!

Both Johnson's and Carlson's were there buying fur. Both seemed to be busy every time I looked. I didnt notice how big their piles were at the end however

I dont know if the guy spends all his retirement on raffle tickets or hes just lucky. Probably a little of both, but the guy wins a lot!

He probably brings along a trailer to haul all his winnings home.

Thanks for all the good laughs, I had a great time. No I did not win the rifle. Not sure what I would have used it for. I will start saving for next years event and will be ready if I am able to attend. What a great bunch of guys and gals. It is really fun to see everyone’s excitement when there name is called. I was lucky a couple of times because I was wearing my good luck, a Viet Nam Veteran cover (that’s a cap). Again thanks, see you next year.

I stopped in to sell fur to Matt Carlson around 9:00AM and despite the parking lot being pretty full, there did not seem to be many inside. Besides Matt, I only talked to two other people I knew. Since I had too many errands to run that morning, I left before waiting to BS with a lot of you who apparently did not get there until later. Sorry I missed most of you.
