It’s time to get your tickets for the Wal-
lowa County Friends of NRA Annual Auc-
tion and Banquet at Cloverleaf Hall, Satur-
day, Oct. 21, beginning 4 p.m.
The banquet sells out each year, so get-
ting tickets early is advised. Because the ban-
quet features a variety of raffl es, ticket prices
vary according to how many tickets attend-
ees wish to buy in advance. The fee for din-
ner is $45 per person.
Attendees spent more than $18,000 on the
raffl es in 2016 and won 64 guns and dozens
of other prizes.
The event grossed $100,000 in 2016,
with half of that money going to the Oregon
Friends of NRA State Fund Committee from
which grants and scholarships are awarded.
Grants in Wallowa County included
$40,000 in donations to Divide Camp (a
hunting camp for disabled veterans) includ-
ing a $15,000 donation for an all-terrain
track wheelchair in 2014; grants to Creating
Memories (a hunting and fi shing organiza-
tion for disabled individuals); approximately
$128,000 for range improvements for Eagle
Cap Shooters Association; a grant to the Wal-
lowa Rod and Gun Club to expand its club-
house; and eight $1,000 merit scholarships
for local high school seniors.
In 2014 Katie Birkmaier of Enterprise,
Morgan Waters of Wallowa and Emily Spang
of Wallowa all were awarded scholarships.
This year scholarships will be increased to
$1,500 per student.
Organizers of the Wallowa County event
estimate more than $200,000 in grants and
scholarships have come back to the county
over the years.
Many local businesses and individuals
support the event through donations of goods
for the raffl es in addition to goods donated by
