N
ebraska Chapter Safari Club International is planning
its annual fundraiser for Jan. 25 and 26, 2019, at the
Beardmore Event Center in Bellevue, Nebraska. All the
proceeds will fund outdoor education, youth and women
hunting programs, conservation and hunters' advocacy
agendas.
This year, our featured guest is Melissa
Bachman, star of Winchester's Deadly
Passion. Ms. Bachman will speak at
our membership meeting, present an
afternoon seminar on Jan. 26, and be part
of our evening festivities both Jan. 25 and
Jan. 26.
While we are excited and proud to
bring Ms. Bachman to our state, we
are equally excited to bring exhibitors
from around the world. Historically,
our event has brought in outfitters from
Colorado, Nebraska, and South Dakota
as well as individuals from South Africa,
Zimbabwe, Argentina and New Zealand,
to name a few. This year we hope for
the same, as our Board of Directors is
working hard to bring in more exhibitors.
Other items of interest will be our live
and silent auctions items. From hunts to
books to hunting apparel and gear to jewelry, we will have
a little bit for everyone. You can join in our raffle items and
take a chance to win quality firearms and beautiful jewelry.
Friday night, in addition to our auction and meeting
Melissa Bachman, we will have a beer garden complete
with Nebraska's own Bohlzen Beer Band
sponsored by Gunderson's Jewelers. On
Saturday afternoon seminars will include
Melissa Bachman and the Women of SCI
who will host a wine and chocolate party
along with youth activities. Saturday
evening will include live and silent
auctions, as well as award presentations.
While membership is encouraged, we
happily open our doors to non-members
and encourage everyone to attend our
event. Please bring your friends and
children to enjoy a weekend with an
organization that promotes youth hunting,
outdoor education, conservation and
hunters' advocacy in Nebraska and
throughout the world. ■
