UPDATE - 3/30/2000 thanks for making this a huge Success!!
We Raised Nearly $13,000!!
The Media coverage we got was tremendous. We were on Channel 3 WFSB TV on Wednesday morning and then on WWYZ Country 92.5 at 9:30AM for nearly 10 minutes. The Bowhunters were the top contributer for the entire event.
Our goal WAS to raise $10,000 for the St. Jude's Children's Cancer Research Hospital by holding an auction of new and used archery items, hunts and other goods.
100% of the money raised will go to St. Jude's, presented by bowhunters.
We would sincerely wish to thank all those whom have donated an item to the St. Jude Benefit in honor of Fred Chappell. Here are the items for bid and the details: Our thanks to these individuals who simply sent us a donation: Barry & Shirley Comer - $25
