Following are photos from the Yellville Youth Day on Saturday, April 21, 2007. It was held at the Fred Berry – Crooked Creek Education Center at Yellville, Arkansas. It was a warm bright clear day, absolutely perfect weather. We had more than 300 kids attend the event. Among the events provided were a Turkey Calling Seminar, K-9 – Wildlife Officer Seminars, Antler Scoring Seminar, Fishing, Air Rifles, Genesis Bow Shooting, making plaster wildlife tracks, Birdwatching and Geocaching. Food consisting of hamburgers, grilled chicken, deer brats, deer jerkey, deer summer sausage, potato salad, BBQ beans, chips, drinks and an assortment of condiments were served. Arvest Bank provided a smoker and Tommy, the cook. He did a great job cooking! Several ADHA members volunteered their time along with some spouses. They worked hard all day long, and deserve many, many accolades for their effort. Tony Ramey deserves a particular mention for taking the ball and running with it. He did an incredible job for us. Marilyn of the AG&FC did a tremendous job of coordinating the events and making sure everything ran smoothly. The AG&FC gave a tremendous effort as well. Fred Berry for whom the facility is named was also in attendance. We gave away numerous door prizes to the kids whom were upbeat, appreciative and enthusiastic all day long. We had several sponsors provide the food, drinks, door prizes and other goods and services. Their generous donations are greatly appreciated and they will each be properly recognized in our newsletter. I am truly grateful for everything that everyone contributed. The event was jointly sponsored by ADHA and AG&FC, and was an overwhelming success. I can honestly say to everyone….YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF YOUR WORK. IT WAS A JOB WELL DONE!
