*bumpity bump*

bump to the top again

Thanks for posting this Roger, and Txhunter for adding it to the Homepage. I have a friend that is going to enter and was hoping that we extended the deadline. Bob

Thanks for the bump! I hadn't heard about this.

I assume the youth contestant needs to be a memeber and not just a parent?

I'm an LSBA member but my 13 yr old son is not. Can I convert my membership to a family membership midstream?

Help, Dena!

Who're the two kids in the picture?

I don't see anything in the rules that the entry has to be a member, just sponsored by one.

Someone will correct me if I am wrong!

I wish I knew Tracy! That picture was given to me by Joey when he started the contest. I have no idea where it came from.

right-wing, I wish I could answer your question about the child needing to be a member, but I cannot. I can answer your second question though. Yes you can convert your individual membership to a family membership. Just get up with Dena and let her know, she will be more than happy to help you out. I hope that someone else will answer your first question. Bob

Ok....

According to the rules Joey laid out in the Fall 07 issue:

"Each young hunter will need an LSBA member to sponsor them and submit their "package". Along with their essay, the sponsor should include a short letter about the youth. Cover the basics about their bowhunting experience, bowhunter education and any pictures from their successful ourtings. The letter should also include a short paragraph detailing the sponsors bowhunting experience."

Thanks for posting the rules, Roger!

Wes, as we discussed, you can up grade to the family membership. Luke will have to be a member to qualify for the First Point Youth Hunt, but apparently does not have to be to enter the Ed Foreman Youth Essay Contest. Luke has been a very busy young man lately and it looks like he is going to be writing another essay! Way to go, Luke!!! Good job, Wes!!!

OK!

I'm all squared away! Thanks to all for helping.

That is great right_wing, that is what the LSBA is all about, helping others. Bob
