MN Deer Farmers Association 2014 Annual Banquet & Fundraiser

The MN Deer Farmers Association welcomes everyone to our 2014 annual banquet & fundraiser to be held at the Arrowwood Resort in Alexandria MN on March 28th and 29th, 2014.  We have some great speakers lined up and are planning on having an incredible banquet again this year.  Please see attached documents for all the information to attend and raffles offered this year.  The raffle tickets offered are NEED NOT BE PRESENT TO WIN…our gun dealer contacts your gun dealer and you pick up your gun in your local area!  All information can be viewed at our website at www.mndba.com .  We are expecting a huge attendance this year, as the MDFA Board is advertising and inviting the public to educate everyone interested about deer farming in the Alexandria area!


 


Please feel free to contact me with any questions!

A few things:


 


 
l[*]Donations are coming in and my hopes are to send an update in this week for the website!  So if you have anything that you would like to get on the website, please send to me asap.  This helps the banquet committee prepare and know what is coming in. 
[/list] 
l[*]Make sure you get registered (it will be $5 more the day of the banquet!) and the room block is ending MARCH 14, 2014!  Make sure to get your rooms before they are gone.  
[/list] 
l[*]We are looking for themed baskets of any kind....doesn't have to be deer related!  These are great donations every year and are a big hit.  
[/list] 
l[*]We have new ideas and new raffles planned this and some great prizes....you won't want to miss this one!
[/list] 
l[*]Raffle tickets sales are going incredibly well...we have some extremely motivated members out there and a HUGE thanks to all of you!  Keep on selling those tickets.  I've heard alot of great things about that dart pistol that we are raffling off this year.  If you are in the market for a good darting gun...here's your chance at a fraction of the price AND you still have 3 chances of winning $50 gift certificates to Pneu-dart!  There are four winners in the dart pistol raffle!!  Of course, those tickets are either you are interested in buying them or send them back.  If you have farmer friends that raise livestock, they would be some of the only people that might be interested in purchasing such raffle tickets, ask them!
