That is a nice piece of change but when you consider we have over 40,000 members it looks a little weak. I have skipped some years for one reason or another so I cannot be critical but let's raise the bar next year!!

Congrats to all who participated in this annual event. It is my understanding that TradGang has contributed $700,000 plus to St. Jude over the years as a result of this auction. Job well done my friends.     :bigsmyl:    Thanks for the update Terry. That is $829,870.75 contributed by TG to St. Jude over the years. Job well done my friends.   :clapper:    :clapper:

I've adopted too many bows that needed a good home.

To everybody that helps supports this cause, rather it be cheering, donating, buying an item at a bargin price, those that pay way more than the monetary value of any item, and all who help in other ways....    :notworthy:      :notworthy:      :notworthy:      :notworthy:      :notworthy:  


Terry,

$29,870.75 is a little off my goal, when I get back to my computer later this weekend I will make a donation to make it an even $830K.  Well, just to be honest, there is a little bit of personal satisfaction here. I have been boasting that this bowsite has raised that amount for St.Judes since the auction ended; I wouldn't want anybody thinking I stretch the truth.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Yes, I received your check.  It was in with the last group of checks Doug picked up this week.

That's too awesome!  

Those totals look good, but the coolest part is how people step up to help others they don't even know!
For we did not follow cleverly contrived myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; instead, we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.
