Southeastern Wisconsin Friends of NRA
February 19, 2009
Weissgerber's Golden Mast on Okauchee Lake, the site of the 2009 Southeastern Wisconsin Friends of NRA dinner, has a reputation for its fantastic duck and prime rib dinner along with its warm atmosphere. Over 190 people gathered at the Golden Mast to enjoy a night of food, fun, and fundraising. Attendees enjoyed a plethora of activities, including the Ladies Dice and the Terry's Closet game. A custom made AR-15-M4 featuring the Friends of NRA minuteman engraved on its receiver was also a big hit- selling out the 200 ticket limit at $20 a ticket. By night's end, the Southeastern Wisconsin Friends of NRA had raised over $27k net for the NRA Foundation.
During the banquet, Chairman Jon Wilcox presented a $5k NRA Foundation grant check to representatives of the Waukesha County Hunter Education Association and a $15k grant check to Don Fortmann, President of Stone Bank Sportsmen's Club, to be used for range improvements.
