I will for sure attend this hunt this time. It should be a blast and they are giving out some really nice stuff. I also have 2 lots at the river about 20 mins from site if anyone wants to camp ther with me and my family along with 2 travel tailers w/bath rooms and kitchens. Please feel free to contact me if you want any information

Thanks Will

That sure sounds like a fantastic hunt. I wish I was able to get there but my work schedule will not permit it. I wish you the best of luck.
