The 2021 annual Solomon Valley Pheasants Forever Banquet was held on Saturday, April 10th at the St. Thomas Parish Center in Stockton. To say the banquet was a success is putting it mildly since the event recorded a record crowd of 280 RSVPs with 345 people in attendance!
The event started out with a social hour followed by a delicious meal with Rusty Hrabe providing the meat and the sides and dessert catered by The Daily Grind Bakery.
There were several raffles held throughout the night which included the following items: a 410 Square, a Ruger Square, a Youth Raffle, Buck-Bucket Raffles, a Ladies Raffle, a Ladies Pistol, a 4-Gun Browning Raffle, a Quilt Raffle, a Top Choice Raffle, a Dart Board, a Knife Raffle, “The Lucky Ticket Raffle,” and the Turkey Package Raffle. Many silent auction items and live auction items were also part of the evening’s festivities, making for some lively bidding.
Also during the night, a shotgun/lifetime hunting license combo, donated by Sunrise AgriBusiness Solutions LLC, was won by Tierra Yohon. And that’s not all, five additional lifetime hunting licenses, donated by Ronda Morgan/Gary Peterson, Fred Ratliff, Jarrett Yohon/Yohon Pumping LLC, Wilkens Manufacturing, and Tarps Unlimited were also given away. The lucky winners were Lincoln Keller, Jada Martin, Bentley Carpenter, Carson Keller and Mia Odle. One of the coordinators
