K EvansWell deserved SCI award
Much space is devoted to bashing SCI rigs, circles and so forth but here is on award that was well deserved . Yesterday, Larry Shores was named SCI Outstanding Member of the Year. Many of you participated in the raffles he sponsored to help the Share the Impact program to help outfitters during the covid crisis, I don’t remember the final total but it was quite a bit of money. He also generously donates hunts to more than one local chapter to help them as well. Congratulations Larry, well deserved!

Glad to see SCI recognizes something positive for a change!

Bwana338Wonderful way to support SCI.
Great job Larry!
The Adult & Child hunt you provided recently was a great donation.
I was watching/monitoring it while I was traveling and was not able to log on in time to place a bid. The auction closed as I was participating in a trap shoot in Oregon. As soon as I was finished shooting handicap for the day, I logged on and found that the hunt had just sold.
Someone is getting a great hunt, that you are providing is all I can say.

Beretta682EWell done Larry.
Actually in reality it is well done sci. Better to give awards to really deserving hunters/conservationists than some inner circle jerk.
