Join 200+ other sportsmen & women at our primary fundraising event.
ANNUAL BANQUET
January 18, 2020
Doors at 5:00 PM; Dinner at 6:30 PM followed by Auction & Raffle Drawings
100% of the proceeds from this event will stay in LOCAL CONTROL to improve wildlife habitat, expand shooting sports, and provide education programs to the conservationists of tomorrow.
Our annual banquets are the chapter's primary funding mechanism. Without the generous support we receive from the community - whether through sponsorships or banquet attendance - we would not be able to deliver on our mission of habitat improvements and conservation education opportunities.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT TO FIND AT OUR BANQUET?
So much more than just "stuff"
Anyone who has ever attended our banquets knows that we try to offer more than just "stuff". At past banquets, we've offered numerous "experiences" including box seats to ball games, race day packages to Iowa Speedway, and even an African Safari!
Some of the things we had this past year are:
Five Gun raffle
Only 200 tickets available
$20 per ticket; 5 winners drawn
Need not be present to win
Mad Hat Raffle (TWO semi-auto shotguns)
Mad Candle Raffle (Six candles, six winners; prizes include jewelry, trips, and more)
Chapter-branded custom-built AR-style rifle.
Wildlife Art
And we always offer a prime rib dinner with all the fixin's.
Check out our banquet program from last year to see some of what we offered as well as the local businesses and individuals that make the event possible.
