Free Booze and Food! January 11th, 2025

[Green Chile]

Thanks for the heads up. Just got my ticket for the weekend. I know I can go Sat and possibly Sunday if the event is large enough. Who else is going Sat?

 

[mdwest]

We’ll be there all day on Friday, Sat, and Sun

Will be there the entire show. Most likely find me at the Bos en Dal booth.

time for an update and to get a little deeper into planning mode now that Christmas is past and we only have 2 weeks until TTHA..

*** Correction to the OP... it looks like the show closes at 5PM on Saturday.. so we can get things started a little earlier than originally planned.. doors open at 7PM at the mdwest house..


**** Door Prizes are starting to flow in... I'll get a series of posts up over the next few days... but will start with this one:

@Bos en Dal SAFARIS is donating 10 days of lodging/accomidation for 2 hunters and 2 non hunters/observers anytime (that the lodge is otherwise not already booked) between March and October of 2025 or 2026. This covers lodging, meals, beverages, daily laundry service, and airport transfers from OR Tambo. Hunters can select any game they want from the published price list. Rifles or bows can be supported (whichever sort of hunt you want to do, is perfectly fine). This is a $9200 value when you consider the cost for 4x people in RSA for 10 days.

Numerous long serving members here have hunted with @Bos en Dal SAFARIS.. I think all will advise that the lodge is very nice, food is outstanding, quality of game is excellent, etc.. someone will be leaving the party extremely happy with this prize I think!

If youre planning on attending the party, even if you already have the address and have attended previous parties, please shoot me a PM and let me know so that I can add you to the guest list.. We're trying to make sure we have plenty of food, plenty of drink, etc. to go around... last years attendance peaked around 65 people.. it was crowded, but we didnt run out of food.. we want to make sure everyone is well taken care of this year as well..

Thanks!

I know that Dave is on top of it but I really look forward to having the forum handle and real name sorted out this year. It's a little weird to stand in the corner and yell hey I'm Green Chile! Dave asked me not to do that this year.

If you stand in the corner yelling I’m green chile… that’d be pretty funny!
