How was the IBA Spring Banquet? I was sorry I couldn't attend. Our son wrestled in the AAU Disrtict Meet in Harlan and since I also coach there was no way to make it.

I enjoyed it. Good program & meal. Lots of friendly folks to visit with. I think there were around 340 that attended.

The proposed legislative bills pending for the license fees and NR & landowner tag increases were topics of much discussion.

E. Donnell Thomas put on a good presentation. Although it seemed he has never been far from money to go on many adventures that most of us only dream about. He had a very impressive family background and much of his presentation was focused on the importance of family & friends sharing the outdoors and not so much on the game that was taken. I found that very refreshing in todays trophy hunting environment.
