Thanks Tony, I've got a long way to go, but with supporters like you my friend, I feel I'll get there.

Terry,
You've come a long way already.  I appreciate your efforts to organize this project, especially for the fact that the winners are the kids.

I applaud your diligence in creating such an iconic work ... a significant piece of history.

   

[T. W. Harris]

Thank you Tony.

Hi everyone, unfortunately Johnny Stelly won't be able to be here at the Pre Spring Arrow Fling.  As you know, Johnny prepares our chili for our free Saturday night supper.

There will be a food Vendor here, however, and you can get lunches as well as supper on both Friday and Saturday night at reasonable prices.

I plan on some great auctions for the Boy Scout Camp, Saturday before supper.  Somewhere around 5;00 PM.

The question was put to me about what's scheduled for this event coming up, the "Pre-Spring Arrow Fling",  my answer was, "the event starts on Friday with no schedule of other things going on."

On Saturday, at approximately 1 PM, right after lunch, I'm planning on having a card raffle for a Black Widow Bow.  I might have another card raffle on another bow at around 3 PM.  One of those bows could be either a Northern Mist Longbow, Bear Archery Bow, Big Jim Longbow or a DAS Bow from 3Rivers Archery.

I also think there will be a Trade Blanket at 4 PM at the registration area.

Then at 5 PM, I plan on auctioning SEVERAL outstanding packages.  These raffles as well as the auctions are to raise money for the local Boy Scout Camp, I also use to place some of my targets.

Just got my tickets the other day. Thanks Terry and thanks for all that you have done for the camp.

[T. W. Harris]

You're welcome Greg, please pass the word.  People that really care about our past tradition that the signee's on this bow represent should be trying to get a chance on winning this one of a kind piece of traditional archery history.

Folks, less than three months away to get your chances on what is a true one of a kind bow.  In my opinion, there will never be another bow like this, EVER!!!.

Folks, I think this important for me to say this.

When I started this endeavor about "The Tradition Lives On" signature bow, I knew in my heart what I believed what this bow meant to me.  I first believed it was men LIKE THESE that made this bow important for our traditional archery history.

I've come to realize it is not men like these, it is THESE MEN that have made this bow important for our traditional archery history.

If it weren't for these men, I really feel most of us today wouldn't be having this sport, hobby or even a great part of our daily lives  here for us to enjoy.

I know there are others out there that could also have been on this signature bow.  I know of three others I tried to get.  One declined to be a part of it, another, at the time, was in a nursing home, and one never would respond to my requests to speak with him.  I'm also sure there are some that many of you feel should be on the bow.

I started this project last Spring, and with what I know now, I truly feel I have the BEST of those torch bearers in traditional archery still with us today that are represented on this bow

Now, at the time of this writing, I've sold 363 tickets out of 1000.  The proceeds, as you know, will be split between a Boy Scout Camp and an organization that works with chronically ill children, both noble institutions.

There are less than three months before I will draw for this bow.  Folks, think about what this bow means, who you might pass it down to if you win it and what it might do to help some child.

Even if you say to yourself, "I don't need another bow", help me sell these remaining tickets and even if you don't want the bow, I'LL BUY THE BOW FROM YOU AT WHAT THE BOW WOULD COST YOU IF YOU BOUGHT IT FROM HOWARD HILL ARCHERY COMPANY.  

Don't let, what in my opinion, is a piece of our traditional archery  history go by you without trying to get it for yourself.

Sincerely, Terry Harris
