New guy with a note of thanks.
« on: May 27, 2009, 10:51:00 AM »
Hello everyone.   I've been referred to Tradgang quite a few times since I took up shooting the longbow last year, but when someone mentioned the St. Jude auction, I checked it out and I had to register.  I've been working at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital since I retired from the Navy in May last year.  There are a lot of children here who will benefit from what you are doing, and I wanted to say "thank you" to all of you.

Welcome to the Gang, Johnny!  Thanks for the service you gave to us as a country, and for the work you are involved in today.   :clapper:

The St. Jude auction is an encouragement to to all of us.  Here is hoping for a few remaining "deep pockets," and a lot of money raised for research!!

Keep checking in, and good luck with the lure of the longbow...

Proud to share a campfire with you!

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

I just took up trad archery 2 months ago and just recently found this website. I have never had so many people be truly glad to help me, whether it was answering ALL my guestions or helping me find copperhead skins for a bow being made for me. I am going to texas with people i have met on this site and talk to several people every week who always seem glad to hear from me.  Yep you people are the tip of the sword.
