General Information Dues are Due Anyone who pays their dues ($60) by the Adult Christmas Party (12/11/04) will be eligible for the drawing of free dues for 2006. All dues need to be paid by 12/31/04. After 12/31/04 the dues will be $70.00. Cookbooks: The process has begun for putting together our own cookbook. We have started receiving recipes, but we need more in order to have a decent compilation. We know a lot of you cook and have some great recipes; please share these with us. We have targeted Sept. 24th as the cut off date, but are willing to extend that by a week if necessary. We are hoping to have the book ready for distribution by Thanksgiving. They would also make some nice stocking stuffers!! Recipes for regular types of food are also being accepted along with appetizers and desserts. We are also looking for kids recipes. So let's hear from all you ice fishing and hunting camp cooks. Calendars: We are also looking into making a 'Woodville' calendar. This calendar will have all our events listed along with meeting dates and times. Any photo donations for the calendar would be greatly appreciated. We will be sure to get the photo back to you. Tickets on sale now for:
Seafood Bake We had another very successful Seafood Bake with over 160 participants! With Rick M.'s crew in the kitchen, everyone feasted on Striper and Blue fish cooked to golden brown, clam fritters in a variety of shapes and sizes, muscles, steamed in a garlic and wine sauce, coleslaw bubbling-hot clam chowder, steamers, and steamed lobster served with butter. The grill crew provided burgers and hot dogs all day, and Lee was shucking littlenecks to the music (and commentary) of John Villa. Frank W's fire-pit crew provided a wood-smoked chicken that had the meat falling off the bone. Thanks to everyone for pitching in and helping make this become a great annual event! Coincidences
Mural At the 2nd club meeting this month, Dave Welch exhibited some of his repairs to the mural. When asked if he would like to comment on his work, he humbly replied "I'll let the mural speak for itself." Stop by and check out his improvements! Lj's Sporting Tip Some arrows that are lodged in 3-D targets can be difficult to remove, especially with the speed and power provided by compound bows. To make it easier to remove the arrows, try applying a silicon lubricant or wax to your practice arrows before shooting them. They usually remove with half the effort! Human Interest: Congratulations to Jackie and Melissa Pratt with the birth of Mary Jane ("Janie") Pratt. That makes Earle Pratt a Great Grandfather!!
 Our condolences to Rusty Hewins family with the loss of his mother in law. Get well soon to Dennis Smith. He had an unfortunate accident the night before the Seafood Bake and is just now getting out of the house. General Information Next Month: Chicken Barbeque on Sept 12th! Remember...
