Besides meeting all of you and seeing lots of our current friends again, the highlight of the convention for my sister and I, was getting to take a picture with former President George Bush on Saturday. He walked close past our booth and as he and Marc exchanged pleasantries, he motioned for my sister Pam and I, to stand alongside him and take a picture. Later that night at the Peppermill we enjoyed his speech as well.
Toward the end of that evening, Marc was auctioned off for a safari hunt for a third successive year. This time the bidding climbed past $150,000 before a ranch owner won the auction for a whopping $155,000. This is believed to be the largest auctioned hunt in the history of SCI. We also want to salute our auction partners, Rigby Guns and Rungwa Safaris.
Now comes the task of unpacking boxes and putting the office back in order. Just about the time we finish, it will be time to start packing up for next year's convention. We'll see ya' in 2011. Until then, safe travels, perfect shots and happy hunting.
Sincerely,
Agape Redwood
