A local guy, here (Both where I live AND 'local' to HNI) is Known to us as Farmcntry. His name is Keith Southern.
You want to meet someone who loves kids (everybody's kids!)........just go see what he does most every weekend. Check out the photos page.
As the father of ONE.........I wantd to say, publicly, .....God Bless you Keith for the difference you're making in these kids lives.
Check out what he does....

A big hats off to Keith!!!
Whenever I see some the the things Keith is doing I think of a bumber sticker I once saw that read......
"Kids who hunt, fish and trap don't grow up to mug little old ladies."
Keep up the good work Keith, the future of our sport thanks you.

Nice, very nice. Definitely keep doing what you are doing. Introducing children to the outdoors is one of the most selfless (and patient I might add 
) actsa person can do.
My hat goes off to you sir.

RE: I'd like to pat a fellow forum member on the back.
Thankyou all. It's not just me. My wife, Paula,has supported this ideal with me from the beginning and she understands that Sept. - Dec. I won't be home. No honey-do lists or anything during that time. Then again in April - (well to be honest) Sept. I'm taking kids fishing, turkey hunting, etc.
Oh yeah, and I rabbit hunt Dec - March. Hmmm. Ok so I'm not home all year!
But it takes a good woman to put up with that.
Also our Vice President, Raymond, got to hunt alone like 3 times this year. You were talking about price per pound. Well he got 1 deer with out of state tags/License in WVA and helped on the lease down here. He's avg. about $600.00/pound.[&:]
Our Secretary, Amber, is 100% fired up all the time about our organization and does anything and everything we ask or need.
In the end it's all worth it to see those kids out there experiencing our heritage.

I love hearing about organizations like that. Great work Keith. The rewards you get from doing what you are doing are far greater than any wall full of mounts.
