Sorry... I've been delinquent in this thread the last few weeks...

Ed: Yeah, Hedgesville is just west of Martinsburg on Rt 9. The club is about 12 or so miles from 81. Take Exit 16W which is Rt 9 West and turn left onto Back Creek Valley Raod which is about a mile out of Hedgesville. The club is 7 miles down Back Creek Valley Road on the left. Very easy to find and we'll have signs out.

As for a bench show judge that hasn't been finalized yet. This is our fourth year hosting this event and we have never announced the judge prior to the show. We have a meeting on Saturday about the hunt though so I'll have something concrete after that. If all else fails our club has 5 bench show judges.

Thanks Connie! We do our best and hope this is a great year too!

these state youth hunts should be sanctioned in more of a central location of the state its 4 hours plus from various parts of the state and alot of wv youth miss out. With the location it seems more of a maryland, va and pa youth hunt not a wv hunt

This August at the State Hunt any club that is a member of the State association can bid on the youth hunt. In the last 5 years there has been a grand total of 2 clubs offer to hold this hunt for the youth. This will be our 4th in the last 5 years. Please feel free to have your club bid on next year's hunt.

The guys that put this hunt on (Tri-State Houndsman Assoc.) have always put alot of time and effort into making this one of the best state youth hunts you will attend.
With a Bench show, Water race, field trial and hunt they keep the kids busy all day long. Just about all the kids go home with some kind of prize or award.
My girls really look forward to this hunt every year.

Looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday,
The Belands

Like I seen in another post 2 clubs bid on the hunt so here is your clubs opportunity to get the hunt in your back yard ... good luck to all the youths

It is a good looking morning this morning here in Hedgesville. We made the trip up last night, took us about 4 1/2 hours. The young man that is going to hunt tonight is excited this will only be his second competition hunt with last weekend being his first. Another buddy of mine has brought his dogs for this young man to handle on the bench field trail and water races. It is fun just watching the excitement in him. I think we might have created another (not so smart) competition coon hunter though. Haha
