PCQC Benefit Field Trial & Seminar A Major Success

We at the Nat’l Bird Hunter’s Assoc. (NBHA), Valley View Field Trial Assoc. (VVFTA), Region 7 AFTCA in appreciation of the years of sponsorship to the NBHA were compelled to do something to show our support for Park Cities Quail Coalition (PCQC) and all their research & habitat restoration; not to mention their support of the NBHA over the years introducing walking field trials to likeminded upland dog enthusiast. A sizable group of people are also owed many thanks for their participation. It’s takes people to pull this off and we’re thankful for all of those who lent a hand. Also to my wife Melissa Sauer who has helped, supported, and been my scout over many years I owe many thanks. She’s always been a trooper but some poor weather days she has a hard time getting excited about it. I have to say mission accomplished for but introducing new folks to field trials and raising money to donate to PCQC. By no means we were able to compete with the PCQC Banquet’s fundraising but we didn’t have Kevin Costner showing up. Huge thanks to all the raffle supporters, Jay Stine, our Judge’s Jason Super, Sean Anderson, Heath Autry, and Trey Baer. This year’s event raised $4,448.00 to benefit PCQC.
