First
of all I’d like to thank everyone that came out to our
Fall Sportsman dinner. It was a tremendous success
because of you. We had one of our best dinners ever and
in these times that says a lot about DU supporters and
what DU means to all of us.
It was a great night as we honored one of Delaware’s
true treasures, Master Carver Bill Veasey. Not only was
Bill honored, but he was gracious enough to donate an
number of items such as a pair of Mallard cork decoys, a
framed/signed and Remarque print and a beautiful carved
sculpture of a pair of flying mallards that went to some
lucky person.
We also had on hand many senior State of Delaware DU
leaders including current Chairman Howard Wilkins and
past State Chairmen: Urie Boulden, Jim Dodd, Pete
MacGaffin and Dave Riddell. We also had State Shoot
Chair Dave Waters. I’d like to thanks them for their
support as well as Herb Kenton and Bryan Brown for his
help during the auction portion of the night.
We couldn’t have done it without your support so thank
you and we look forward to seeing you at our next
event. One last factoid. As a result of funds raised
at the event we save another 80 acres for the Ducks.
See you next time.
