Dear Supporter,

The 19th Brazos Valley Friends of NRA banquet is on April 26, 2011 at the Brazos Center in Bryan. Come and join your friends, neighbors and hundreds of fellow shooting enthusiasts in a fun filled evening of auctions, raffles, the 14th annual BIG 12 GUN raffle and an outstanding steak dinner. There will be more firearms and opportunities to win than ever before.

Thanks to your support and the support of fellow Texans; almost 3 and ¼ million dollars has been funded in grants in the South Texas region. Nationally we have funded over 160 million in grants. Those grants support the shooting and hunting sports, community service and conservation. Recipients include 4-H, Boy Scouts, ROTC, women’s education, law enforcement and many others. None of our funding goes to politian support, and we receive no funding or input form those activities.

Your continued support is needed to ensure our success. If you can’t attend as an individual or sponsor, please consider donating merchandise or underwriting the cost of an auction item. Both of which are tax deductible. 2011 will be a challenging year as we continue to support the perpetuation of the shooting sports and firearm safety.

Ticket prices are as follows: $1450 Freedom Table- reserved table for 8, Freedom Sponsor Package (includes Uberti Stallion .22) $1250 Aggie Table- reserved for 8 people, Liberty Sponsor Package, and Ruger LCR .357 $1000 TU Table-reserved for 8 people, Ruger LCR .357, no statute $450 Liberty Table- reserved table for 8 and Liberty Sponsor Package $350 Reserved Table- reserved table for 8 $35 per person

We look forward to seeing you at the banquet. Please get your tickets early; we will have a cap on attendance. If you would like to volunteer, welcome aboard as we have positions available. Now more than ever before support for the hunting and shooting sports is needed by people like you. We must preserve the future.

Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you at the banquet!
