FOTPCA Oklahoma Spring Meeting Poster Contest

[OKTrap]

We had a very successful association meeting ... but more to the point of this original topic.

Three kids are unfortunately all we had that entered, be it because of rain or grades. But hopefully more next time will participate.

We were able to make three kids very proud today, when we awarded them their prizes of new Duke traps, Duke stretchers, the Havaheart Cage Trap and Dobbins books. Parents, Mrs. Oklahoma, Mrs. Oklahoma Teen, and some congressional reps were equally proud ... as they were also in attendance.

So what it boils down to ... is three young fellers were awarded prizes that will retail close to $500 in total cost. Just for having good grades ... and good grades they had ... each was an AB student.

Now I hope that more kids will participate in the next contest we sponsor, and remember all we ask for is a passing report card ... they do not have to be on the AB honor roll.

I will post more on this when we get the pictures developed. The participants posters will aslo be on display at one of the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation Regional Offices (TBD).

Now I will leave with this last statement until I have further to post.

It is better to have tried and failed, than to have never tried at all.

Thanks to everyone for their support.
