Morgan, are you a member to any of the other hunting forums in MD. I could post this information on the other site if you would like.

Andy

Post it anywhere you want to Fox. The more kids we can get the better.

Couple years ago we had a woman with 3 kids in tow, she had lost all her new chickens to foxes over the summer and had murder in her heart.......

[davep]

Great, now there's THREE things that weekend I'd like to do, but only time for one!

I'll spread it around as well.

DaveP, you'll just have to skip the Gay & Lesbian parade AND the "Pole Dancing by Big Fox" seminar!!!

But if I don't go, who will hold your purse for you while you are busy prancing and sashaying around? ;D

And your unhealthy obsession with Andy and the "pole" is REALLY starting to concern me!

And if the skeeters over your side are like they are here today, I may scratch sika off my to do list until December!
They are BAD here the last few days. At least it's calling for a few more inches of rain!

Morgan, I checked with a couple young men who usually make it there, and they are busy that day, but TRYING to get freed up!

Great Dave. We are getting a decent response to this. Would love to have huge bunch of kids show up. The more the merrier. This local group TAKO seems to have their hearts in the right place and just the group we need to connect and educate.

Course it helps that I have done predator control on some of the parents properties and they think what we do is amazing.....

[osprey]

I'm leading off with it in my column this week, maybe that'll get you some more kids from the area.

[morgan]

Why thanks Mr. Osprey. We welcome all the help we can get.

ps. I am not teaching marsh walking 101 at this event......

[osprey]

You save that course for special education guys like Parker, don't ya?
