A THANK YOU FROM MARCY HARRIS
I would like to express my gratitude to the club for the support you gave me for the Extreme Huntress Contest.  I did not win, but it was such an honor to have even made the top ten.  Your support made a big difference in the number of votes I received.  Because of the exposure I received from the contest, I have since been asked to write an article for www.adventurewomen.com about hunting and teach a "Hunting Desert Critters" clinic for the Becoming an Outdoors Woman event at Saquaro Lake later this month.  It is so exciting to be reaching out to more women and bringing them into the sport.  One lady from San Simon read my article and came down to the store to meet me and signed up for Archery Lessons.
Look forward to seeing you guys at Usery Mountain!
Thanks again!
