Toys For Tots - Turkey Shoot Fundraiser Saturday, Nov. 9th with real wet looking overcast skies, Moose Old Skagit Gun Club hosted this annual event. We were blessed with a reprieve from the rain and the most successful shoot in our history. Ladies associated with Moose Lodge #1640 made a wonderful turkey dinner for us. They made great smells and fed 72 with plates of a traditional meal, thank you so much. Members of Masonic Lodge #77 spent the last 2 months traveling to lodges throughout our area pre-selling targets and adding to the coffers in excess of $800.00. Our thanks to the Masons who not only attended in record numbers but staffed our trap fields. Henry Park again organized our Pig Shoot which was also the biggest in history. The boys from Granite Falls and Bellingham Gun Clubs teamed up to beat out MOSGC shooters. A twelve year old boy shooting a pump gun as long as he was tall made the most spectacular shoot of the day when he backed up the best Granite Falls had to offer. Again we cannot thank local business enough for their support, they don't do this for recognition but they deserve it anyway. Quantum Construction, Welch Brothers Construction, SRV Construction, Mr & Mrs. Johnson & Pacific Tank & Body all helped make another charitable record. So many people contributed the most valuable and rare commodity in this day and age, their time. We all worked together collectively to provide a pick up load of toys and a check for $5000.00 which exceeds all previous events . We at MOSGC thank you for all your participation & contributions. Sincerely, C.S. Manning, President Moose Old Skagit Gun Club  Pig Shoot Winners Dave Koehler & John Thorp
