Vice-President’s Report (Mike Gapsch)

Wayne is doing daily therapy and making progress. No meeting in November due to peak rut hunting season. December meeting will be on December 6th and also the club christmas party.  Encourage everyone to submit ideas for the canned food drive. Gun Raffle winner was Charles Ruggeri (sp). Almost 600 tickets were sold. Motion to send $50 to Gateway Armory to cover costs. Motion was passed by majority. Looking for ideas for another raffle for 2019–guns seem to be the most popular and best ticket seller. Club hunt is 10-11-18 through 10-14-18. 25 paid with 3 pending. 17 sponsorship renewals–please get out and support these business. Harvest contest continues.
