Guys per Falnuva's suggestion I created a new forum for noteworthy events and happenings so they don;t get lost in the daily clutter...

PLEASE FILL IT UP WITH THREADS ON YOUR EVENTS ASAP!!! Since it is at the top it needs a filled.

Thanks guys looking good...hopefully it will spur more interest too..

Just some clarification RB -
Are we to ONLY post our upcoming events in the "HPA in the news" forum, and no longer post them in some of our favorite "hang-outs"?

When I hear "HPA in the news", I think of HPA showing up in newspapers or popular media - I don't think of regional activities for HPA members. My suggestion would be we should call our new thread "Regional HPA Events" or "HPA Members Events" or "Events of Interest to HPA Members". Keep the "HPA in the news" headline for times when we get some good press because some HPA members cleaned up a stretch of highway or SGL, or sponsored a local trout derby, or provided hunting instruction for juniors, etc.

Just a suggestion. I only make the point because I don't want to get our planned events to get lost - it's hard enough now to get members out in great numbers!

Post events in there and in the forums where the likely audience will be .

I agree, I think the title should be changed to "HPA News and Events" or something similar to that because HPA In The News does seem like newspapers that have mentioned us etc.

Having said that, it does look nice

Guys you need to remember one urpose of the forum is to catch the attention of all, including media, and get some fo this stuff in the news.

The post from deer farmer is cool, and another great purpose.

Got it RB! I see where you are going with it.

Can we get the sw get together thread deleted. It makes us look bad and kinda tuff to start anything else with that hanging out there
