Weekend For Wetlands

I would like to take this opportunity to invite all DU members to the Grand Strand Chapter's 2nd Annual Weekend For Wetlands held on November 2-3, 2007.

Our November 2nd Annual Fundraising Banquet at SBB 4 Corners in Murrells Inlet will be our biggest and best yet.  There will be roasted oysters, barbecue hog, shrimp and wings for appetizers; followed by a gourmet dinner provided by Outback Steakhouse.

We will have 15 raffle tables - each loaded with $1000 or more in merchandise.  Including a camo golf cart and numerous guns.

Our live auction will feature over twenty unique items, not in the DU National Package:
  • A large print collage signed by Strom Thurmond, Governor Riley and President Reagan.  This collage features a South Carolina Duck Stamp Print, raised gold state emblems, and a picture of the State House at night with the Confederate Flag flying.  It is framed in Brazilian hardwood.
  • A 1928 Ithaca double barrel shotgun in mint condition.
  • Several unique hunting and fishing trips.
  • A life sized Great Blue Heron (original driftwood sculpture) by Lee Arthur.
  • #283 of 950 - The 1976 DU National Artist of the Year Print by Les Kouba.
  • #73 of 100 - Larry Toschik medallion print form 1974 (Harlequin Ducks).
  • The #1 selling print of 1979 - "Called In" (Mallards by Toschik).
  • Several Ralph J. McDonald's best prints.  (Ralph will be a special guest at the event!)
  • Plus much more!!!
The Fun starts at 6:00 PM.


Our November 3rd Greenwing Day will be held at A Dog's Way Inn and will feature food/soft drinks, fun and games for all ages.  There will be a fishing contest in a pond stocked with hybrid striped bass, archery and gun safety demos, a BB gun turkey shoot, a hay bale hunt and numerous other games for the small kids.  The SCDNR virtual reality trailer will be on site.

Come on down to the beach and enjoy our events!



Sincerely,

Rick Baumann
