Guys and Gals, Wanted this to get out early enough to have alot more plan to attend this event this year, we are doing a special project to help raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project. Anyone that would like to donate to the silent auction please feel free to email me or call, ALL PROCEEDS WILL go to the Wounded Warrior Project. The winner of the Ogre Challenge will recieve a certificate for a Kustom Voodoo Elk Longbow.
Thanks guys, wanted to do something alittle different this year but bottom line help out not only some of my buddies but others as well.
1st place in the orge challenge as stated above will be voodoo kustom elk bow built to the specs of the winner. 2nd and 3rd will be hand made knifes from Ray Clark.
The club again will still give out plaques for all classes. Will be working on Vendor list and Auction list as soon as we start getting stuff in. I know the auction will include stuff not only for Trad shooters but also any outdoorsman.
We got 10 bottles of scent yesterday from Butternut lures for the auction at the end of the week I am going to start contacting and building the auction list hopefully by leaps and bounds. Also remember about the Orge Challenge, the winner gets a kustom bow made by VOODOO, also if you sign up for the challenge it will be at a reduce cost. Things are shaping up real nicely and looking forward to making another memorable shoot. for the auction.
Looking like we will have some of our same great vendors as last Memorial Day but maybe few more additions, if you follow the leatherwall, Lost Nation hasn't set his sched but Dave from St. Joe River Bows has told him all about us and they are going to try and come on down, also Chessbum from Great Lakes Longbow invit. is thinking about coming down to help us out with the auction.
Trying to keep everyone abreast how things are going, Hope everyone had a great holiday Eric

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, this shoot is shaping up to one of the finest held ever at Farmland.
Camp Cuervo Archery Club will be running the CUERVO ARMY STRONG CHALLANGE- it is a speed shoot that each person competes against the clock. Ron LaClair won this last year at the GLLI. The money collected will go to the wounded warrior project.
I will keep everyone abreast to more exciting news for our shoot and the Wounded Warrior Project. I have included the diagram from John's FB page that shows the shoot layout.
Just to clarify about the wounded warrior project and donations, The club will donate 50% of the shoot fees of the ogre challenge and all proceeds from the auction. We will have donation cans around the club house to help with the cause. If there are any further questions please do not hesitate to either email or call 765-744-0021 Looking forward to a great weekend of shooting, family, telling tall tales and a great time had by all.
Someone asked why I was working so hard for this shoot etc etc. A few of you know that I served in the Navy but very few know in what capacity. I am doing all this for 3 individuals that were lost from our team July 6, 2007 They were all Fathers, 2 were husbands but all were friends. Jay steve robert
We are up to 16 vendors, just picked up Dave Stutters from Ohio deals in Bear items and bows. We also have 3 novelty shoots, Wounded Warrior Auction, Sharpening Demo with KME sharpners, and we have a guest speaker on Saturday evening.
The guest speaker is going to be Todd Szmania and he will be talking about the following Todd Szmania and Bridger will talk on - Teaching your dog to track wounded deer and having your dog teach you how to find them. Plus Todd will talk on Shooting with a Countdown or Sequence. This will be Friday evening, due to so much going on Saturday evening. We will have the time posted at the registration table.
