You can also register for the course at the DWR’s website at www.wildlife.utah.gov This is a great opportunity to get involved with educating the next generation of trappers. The DWR needs more instructors and we try to do our part in helping the DWR with getting people involved in taking the class as well as teaching the course. We encourage all willing members to take this course and become a certified instructor.
Saturday Banquet Dinner will begin at 6:00 pm. We will be serving roast/smoked pork, corn and rolls, along with dishes from each member of the association. We ask each of you to please bring a potluck dish to help with the food.
After dinner we will hold our awards ceremony, award the scholarships, enjoy a Live Auction, and draw for our main raffle prizes, and bucket raffles. To help with our Silent Auction, Bucket Raffle, and Live Auction we would greatly appreciate donations to help make these events a success. If you would like to donate to our auctions, please contact Kelly Laier at 435-979-2402
