California’s Livermore-Pleasanton Chapter had their 16th annual banquet on March 14, and they did it again! They had an exciting evening that netted over $50,000 for the Mule Deer Foundation. The committee had a well-planned event that started with games, raffle and a prime rib dinner, followed by a jam-packed auction, which featured a Wyoming Governor’s Deer/Elk/Antelope license and a California Open Zone Deer Tag. The proceeds from these tags go to each state. Brian Scott, the Master of Ceremonies for the evening, had everyone involved in the final drawing of the evening. It was for a Honda quad runner. Brian kept everyone on pins and needles as he eliminated numbers until the winner was the only one left holding a ticket. Congratulations to all the committee members, volunteers and donors who made this an outstanding event!
