Pre-show brochures

To all: Starting this year, instead of mailing out the whole pre-show brochure, you will receive a post card flier, with just some basic information. Then from this website, you will be able to print off the pre-show brochure, and send in your registration form and money, for this year's show.

Click here for the brochure.

Members gathered on Sunday, February 12th, at Chris Hoskins shop. First a meeting was held, to get ready for this year's show. After that, they began to mount the caribou from this year's Catch a Dream participant, Jaxom West. The unveiling of the caribou will be at this year's Saturday night banquet.
To all ITA Members.

The following letter was sent to the Dale Garner, Director of the DNR.
Other letters were also sent to Governor Branstad and other State Representatives.
If you agree, I strongly urge you to call, or email, your local representative.
Please be polite, and to the point. Please stress how the low deer numbers has affected your small business.
