Out-of-town visitors and locals alike flocked to the American Legion on the eve before Pheasant Season Opener last Friday, kicking off the seasonlong celebration with food, friendship and fun.
As usual, a huge number of attendees at the Wessington Springs Pheasants Forever Chapter annual banquet and auction fundraiser caused the American Legion event center to reach capacity last Friday.
“On behalf of the chapter, we want to thank everyone for their support at last Friday evening’s Pheasants Forever fundraising banquet. From the sponsors who help make this event possible, to the volunteers who do all the meaningful work, and to the attendees who come out and support the chapter and mission, we thank you! The banquet helps us fund future projects for the following year where we always strive to keep assistance and spending local,” said Chapter President Paul Sheldon. “The chapter remains committed to putting our best foot forward to deliver on the Pheasants Forever mission and represent all of you for many years to come.”
