WSF banquet. Who's going?
Just as the title says. Who's going to the wild sheep foundation banquet? It's going to be my first year attending. Really looking forward to it! Even more looking forward to my ticket being drawn for the hunt of a lifetime!

Do they want you to be in attendance for the draw or will they post up the winning numbers after? I bought a ticket but I'm not a member so I figured the banquet was for members.

I'll be there for the second time. I missed last year and can't wait to win the raffle this year.
Either that or I'm bringing a bunch of GPS units to install in all the other sheep hunters trucks to follow around for summer into fall.....

Yep I'll be there - both Friday night for the social and the Saturday banquet. Always a good time.
The Friday night there will be a rifle raffle with all the proceeds going to the Franklin W Ross Outstanding Guide Award fund to help pay for the bronze and annual buckles. Be sure to go Friday and buy up some raffle tickets and support a great cause!

I'll be there after a two year hiatus. Looking forward to seeing some friends I haven't seen in awhile and meeting some new ones. If anyone wants to meet up for a beer let me know.

Fyi
For anyone attending the banquet, if you're planning on booking a room at the Sheraton for the Friday and/or Saturday, WSFA has a block of rooms that are available to those attending at a discounted rate. Be sure to mention that you're going to be there for the WSFA banquet to receive the special rate. If you've already booked at their regular rate you can call back and still receive the discount.
Be sure to quote: code WSC06A to receive your special rate.

It's a really good deal also. I'm part of that Sheraton club and AMA. The WSF deal is better then those rates.

They do have a pool, but it's outdoors.

Just to add to this, here's a link to the video they had put together for the sheep dinner the first year after Franklin passed.
This is the year to raise all the money required!!!
