My > husband loves that store! > Sara - mommy of Zach 19 months wcf We tried last year but most of the hunting stores told us that they were holding back on give to fundraisers. I think because it was something new so I hope if we keep bugging them every year they will eventually get tired of us and give something to auction off. Their is a guy in Michigan who started the Camouflage ball he has a son who has cf and they both love to hunt so he thought off Hunting for a cure so that is how the theme got started plus it really gets the guys more involved with the fundraiser. If you hubby is anything like mind he would rather be doing anything else then walking but when it comes to hunting things well that's different. If you would like to start one in your area I can help you get in contact with Pete his dream is to get this going in every state. I hope it comes true!!!

Then we got some really nice scenic picture to auction off and nice jewelry from some jewelry stores and some expensive fur hat and gloves, a nice luggage. We had a dinner catered. Oh ya we also had people dress in camouflage and the best dressed won a prize. We also had a very expensive rifle that people bought tickets for and you didn't have to be present to win which really brought in a lot of money. We also had a silent auction. Pete in Michigan had a dance at his but because it was our first year we decide to keep it simple and hoped that maybe in the future we could add that too. If you have any more question let me know.
