THE LOUISIANA BAYOU HUNT
April 18-19-20, 2008.
Friday evening through Sunday evening.. RICHLAND PARISH, LOUISIANA
PLEASE KEEP THIS THREAD AS AN
OFFICIAL HUNT THREAD.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ONLY
REGARDING THE HUNT.
This is a private lands hunt that encompasses 85 acres with two homesites, in addition to two other local sites with historical value.
All meals are furnished except breakfast. This is because most everyone seems to be checking into local hotels/motels, which have a continental breakfast. This is fine; it kept the costs down for you.
The price for hunters is $60.00. This includes meals from Friday night through Sunday night, no breakfasts.
The price for guests (A$$ES) is $25.00. This includes meals from Friday night through Sunday night, no breakfasts.
The monetary difference between this hunt and the past ones is that meals are furnished, plus the hunt is extended through Sunday.
Please send funds to: B Grammer

No credit cards, please. Am not equipped to process them. Cash, check, money orders ok.
Registrations are needed by April 10th. Anything after that will have to be cash and advance notice.
After registration and monies are received, you will receive a private e-mail depicting site address and directions.
The menu will include local Louisiana cuisine, all cooked on site. Shrimp, catfish, gumbo, pork, deer, beef, scallops, chili, breads, fruits, veggies, coffee, water, sodas. When hunters go offsite to other locations, lunches will be packed and provided. There will always be fruits and sweets available, in addition to sodas and water. If you need specific sodas, diet sodas, etc., please bring a supply for yourself. If you are diabetic, please let me know so I can have the appropriate juices for you.
This is a family and adult hunt. Children are welcome! This is a farm with chickens, roosters, dogs, cats, and ducks. It can be a wonderful experience for kids, and we encourage their involvement! But we do understand that animals can inflict injury on children, so we ask for parental supervision.
Adults, feel free to BYOB. Be aware that Louisiana is a dry state on Sundays (cannot purchase). You are more than welcome to partake, but be adult about it. Please have a designated driver back to the motels and cognizant of the fact that there may be children and non-imbibers present at the hunt and after-hour activities.
There will be a Hold Harmless/Liability Release document to sign for all visitors on site before any hunting or activities begin. Please volunteer yourself to sign this so hunting or other activities are not delayed.
Schedule is:
Friday: Travel and check-in at local motels-- campers onsite
Dinner onsite at 6:00 p.m.

Saturday: Hunt
Noon: Lunch

6:00 – Dinner and prize awards; bonfire; live music
