Lowcountry Longbeards NWTF banquet






The inaugural Hunting Heritage banquet held by the new Lowcountry Longbeards chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) was held 8/21 at Alhambra Hall in Mount Pleasant. A social hour welcomed members before a beaufort stew was served by Charleston Bay Gourmet.  A live auction and silent auction were conducted so that sportsmen could bid on exclusive items such as turkey hunts and fishing trips. The dollars raised will go towards conservation programs of the NWTF and to causes such as the Wheelin' Sportsman program. The Lowcountry Longbeards chapter has already held several hunts for disabled hunters at the Tibwin Forest in Awendaw.
