Please Read Coonhunters Helping Our Youth
GUYS I HAVE TAKEN ON A NEW PROJECT HERE IT GOES AS THE MENTORS OF OUR SPORT TO THE YOUTH WE TAKE A HUGE ROLL IN WHAT OUR YOUTH DO....FOR A WHILE NOW I HAVE HELPED IN TRANSPORTING PUPS TO NEW OWNERS AT NO COST (YOUTH) BUT I ALWAYS SEEM TO SEE THE SAME DEAL NEW PUP NO EQUIPMENT OR VERY POOR SHAPE .....I KNOW AS A FATHER I WANT MY CHILDREN TO GET A FAIR SHAKE AT WHAT THEY DO SO I FEEL AS IF WE HAVE A PROGRAM TO GIVE YOUTH PUPS WE SHOULD HAVE A PROGRAM TO GIVE YOUTH THE EQUIPMENT TO PROPERLY TAKE THE DOG TO THE TIMBER.........I HAVE PUT QUITE A FEW HOURS INTO STRUCTURING THIS PROGRAM ....
#1 YOUTH MUST SUBMIT A ESSAY ON WHAT THEY NEED AND WHY THEY DESERVE IT......
#2 I HAVE SELECTED 4 OTHER HUNTERS TO REVIEW THE ESSAYS AND HELP IN DECIDING WHAT ITEMS GO WHERE..
#3 UPON RECIVING THE EQUIPMENT A THANK YOU NOTE WILL BE SENT TO THE DONATOR OF THE ITEM...
NOW HERE IS WHERE WE AS HUNTERS COME INTO PLAY I AM LOOKING FOR ANY DONATIONS SUCH AS PREOWNED /OR NEW EQUIPMENT ( DOG COLLARS LEASHES LIGHTS SQUALLERS ECT)ANYTHING THAT WILL PUT A KID IN THE TIMBER IN A POSITIVE FASSION..... I AM ALSO LOOKING FOR ANY CASH DONATIONS FOR SHIPPING COSTS......... TO KEEP EVERYTHING ON THE UP AND UP I WILL POST ALL ITEMS RECIVED CASH OR GOODS ON ANOTHER POSTING UNDER THE OTHER SECTION ON UKC"S WEBSITE AND AS EACH ITEM OR CASH IS SENT OUT I WILL SHOW THIS...ALSO EACH ITEM WILL BE NUMBERED TO ENSURE THE YOUTH GETS WHAT WAS DONATED.......
IF ANYONE HAS ANY INPUT PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SPEAK UP I HOPE IN THE FUTURE WE CAN GET AN AUCTION GOING WITH STUD SERVICES AND GOODS...THANK YOU GARY MARTIN 517 937 4893 SEND ANY DONATIONS TO GARY MARTIN 10383 SOUTH MISSION RD. SHEPHERD MI 48883

The way I see it, you are a very selfish man. You could at least take a picture of the ones that get the pups and post for everyone to see that smile on their face. -jk- Great Idea for the youth, keep it up.
