*2007 Christmas Basket collection *Hides Program Last year Farmington turned in one third of the hides in the state for the program. This is a tough act to follow, but with the help of all the hunters and their friends, our lodge can top this. Bow season starts in mid-October. Hides will be accepted then through mid-December. Signs will be posted. Bring your deer, cow, elk or other hides to the lodge and leave them for the Elks hide program. If you can help, contact Larry Cruse or just show up by 1:30 on the 6th. *Magazines for Vetrans Simply, keep'em coming. Thank you to all the members that have delivered magazines to the lodge for our nursing home vetrans. The more donated, the more can be distributed. The annual "Sweats for Vets" program will be coming up, be thinking about this. Another thing to ponder, what language would we be speaking if our vetrans hadn't stood up for our freedoms??-Richard Craft
