******* AUCTION BLUE,,,,SKIES - Thank YOU! ******

[Terry Green]

Our goal was to keep this going till be busted one MILLION dollars for the kids....and the economy has set us back a bit over the last few years or we would be real close to a million now.

I don't care what ya got....look around...see what you aren't using, don't need, don't like anymore.

Anything to raise a dollar for the kids.


I have a couple of items from an anonymous donor to list, a few other items and a hog hunt....

But I see very little interest this year.

The listings at this point are very disappointing to me....This is always such a fun time with lots of enthusiasm, guys razziing each other, folks talking about bidding on stuff....folks yakin it up.....but there seems to be all that good o'l boy stuff missing this year.

Has this effort run its course?

[JoeM]

Stay the course!!!!  Going digging in the basement right now.  Joe

[MTArrowLauncher]

I've got some stuff, I'll take some pics and post it up  

[Mudd]

Your concern is a reflection of your leadership but don't worry "T" because we will do what we can.

Know that whatever funds we raise is more than they would have if we didn't do anything so my vote is that we stay the course.

Faith is the belief in things "not" seen.

Hang in Terry and we will hang in with you.

God bless you brother!

His servant, Mudd

Terry,
Just got back from hunting Nebraska turkeys with four other Trad Gangers.  I know our group will be adding a bunch of items to the auction, just had to get the birds down first...tippit

[Danny Rowan]

I do not think it will ever run its course, anything we can raise is a plus and I think once it gets going you will see the enthusiasim is there. I am wresteling with a decision right now on something else to list. My brother's bow, he loved the auction so much and I just do not shoot the bow, but it was his and I am trying to decide if he would want me to put it up or just let it hang on the wall.

[awbowman]

I think once the auction starts, there will be plenty of bantering and the spark will light Terry ..... and like Mudd said, we will all do our best.  I do realize that it takes a lot to put together this auction, but stay the course Super T.  

With the economy like it is, I don't see a banner year either, but our dedication to this cause will NEVER waiver.

[Hermon]

Terry- I still have something to sell.  I will post it in a bit.  

[Sean B]

I put some stuff on, looking around for more.  I'm sure  that there will be a burst last minute! It'll pick up

[J. Holden]

Thanks for the reminder to get me off my duff.  I just listed 4 more items.  I say don't quit yet!

[Izzy]

I will be listing more items, 3 at least. Just gotta find a minute to get in the workshop.

[threeunder]

More stuff from me is on the way....just having a bear of a time getting it pulled together.

Will get it posted as soon as possible

[Bud B.]

It hasn't run its course. For many it'll be their first one. Only my third.

I won't list as much this year as shipping last year got me and I'd rather be on the buying end this time. I'm holding out for the bidding part   .

Looking forward to many years of this.  

[kbetts]

X2 on the shipping, but I knew better when I listed a full body turkey decoy.  My stuff is on the way......clearing through the clutter and making a pile.

[Hud]

Okay, got lots to sell, need to find get it together. What are the deadlines, again?      :rolleyes:    :eek:

[Greg Clark]

Will post up a few things this evening that are taking up space and need a new home.  I don't need the money as much as the kids.

[Eric Krewson]

One of our fellow Trad Gangers died of cancer last year, Ralph,"Biff" Moore. His girlfriend dropped a bunch of his stuff off at my house after he died, mostly books. He was into cowboy history and had a mighty fine collection of books of this nature which I will be posting on the auction as well as some archery related books. Just haven't taken the pictures yet so I can post the items.

[awbowman]

Going to the camp this weekend, I'll round up some stuff

[Benjy]

Terry, is there a way to send out an "email" to all the Tradgang members to let them know it's time for the auction?

I have some stuff to get posted myself, just have to find/make the time!!

Benjy

[Cyclic-Rivers]

Terry, From the looks of the Pow wow, there's a lot of new bows being bought.

Hopefully these guys saved a few bucks for the auction.  

I am planning on listing an item or two.  These kids deserve a chance.
