Thanks from TwinOaks
« on: May 08, 2018, 07:29:35 am »
A big thank from all of us at TwinOaks, the 21 Classic was a great success even with the rain. Seem everyone had a good time and we had 572 Registered shooters. That is a little down from last year but considering the weather it makes me feel very humbled that so many came out anyway. The raffle went great and the concessions sold out of everything. The Saturday night Pot luck went great and everyone got feed. The bow building challenges  went  of with out a hitch also. Hope all had a good time and hope to see you next year. ;) :)

Sorry we missed you all this year Pappy.  Just life's circumstances.  Hope to pay you a visit in the summer months and be able to catch up.

Glad it was a success for you and the club.

Glad to hear it was a success!  I hope you were able get some shots off in spite of the rain!  Jacie played an outdoor wedding out here, and we were able to get through with just a few raindrops before the wedding started!  I heard there was 2 1/2 inches of rain in your region on Saturday, we got it during the week!

You are very welcome Matt and all the others that made the trip. Yep it was lucky Gary, he was so excited and I don't blame him, very nice piece. All the raffle prizes went extremely well and were very much appreciated, seems every year the folks from all over and especially my friends from PA go above and beyond. Even though I know it is not expected and that is what makes it so special to me ,I hope some day to be able to repay them for their kindness and generosity.  ;) :)
