Wisconsin Bear Hunters Association Inc - Report Of A Successful 2017 Convention

Greetings Members,

We started the convention on Friday where our entire board of directors worked very hard to get everything and everyone just where they needed to be for the duration of the weekend. Signs hung, tables set up, puppy room arranged lots and lots of prizes and auction items logged in and put on display, followed by final details of the convention center.

After a few hours of preview Friday, we were headed to the banquet dinner where we were joined with some very important friends from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources and the state legislature. I’d like to thank Kurt Thiede Deputy Department Secretary, Dave McFarland Large Carnivore Specialist, Todd Schaller Chief Warden and also state representative Kathy Bernier (Chippewa Falls, WI). We had a nice dinner and some great conversation.

Saturday morning came early especially for those who took full advantage of the after hours entertainment. Before the doors opened we laid out and planned an 81 item auction for the main attraction of the day. As the doors opened we were busy immediately with membership renewals increasing by roughly 26% and new member sign up increasing by 45%. The selling of many different types of raffle tickets and the collection of the annual raffle tickets; we were all very busy doing our part for our members to enjoy.
