We welcome anyone that can to attend the VL WHITSON CLASSIC at Toisnot Swamp Coonhunters Assn in Wilson, NC this weekend.

The hunt will consist of a Bench Show and Nite Hunt Friday night. The following day we will have a Bench Show, Water race, Treeing Contest, and Nite Hunt. The menu special from the kitchen will be BBQ Chicken.

VL Whitson is a long time member, has been an honest (over 25 years) treasurer for the club, and is a hunter and promoter of the Treeing Walker Coonhounds. VL is the original Tar River line, anyone hunting Yadkin River dogs may have seen the Kennel Name in a pedigree....

UPDATE - RESULTS POSTED BELOW
