come on clubs...don't let Michigan and West Virginia be the only ones to step up for the this cause. just think, if only 1 club in each state would take part what a nice bonus for the kids.

On behalf of the TBSWV I want to extend a big THANK YOU to the fine folks from Michigan for stepping up and accepting the challenge issued by our club to help the kids at St. Jude Childrens Hospital.

Because I can't really afford to enter the bidding process for goods donated, in the name of the Michigan Longbow Association I will be sending a $25.00 check to the collector of fees for the kids at St. Judes.

Now I consider that a challenge to other members of the MLA to step up to the plate for the KIDS!!!

Mighty nice of you to do that Jon. I had 2 people contact me this morning as to where to send the money.  Your good deed did not go un noticed.

Mike, I mailed the check out this morning.  Like I wrote, I can't get into a bidding war but fealt that something needed to be done.  If everyone just sent $5.00 or $10.00 in under the MLA maybe it would snowball into something big.
Thanks,Jon

As my wife's West Verginie uncle says, "it's West BY GOD Virginia".  I like all the people I have met in that State.  Hard working and honest.  2 things I look for in a friend.
