Prizes for contest chairmen

[ed4copies]

OK, I found Ugly and photo and posted to those threads. But I am not certain about the other contest threads and I don't want to "steal your thunder" by posting on a public thread, so here are the prizes for the pen contests, chairmen can post to the appropriate places.

[hunter-27]

Not my contest but, is there still a Wood ID contest?

 

[ed4copies]

Yes, the wood ID winners get the wood they ID'd.

Precedent from last year and the year before, skins contest (2010) and "name the wood" (2009)

But thanks for asking-----I'd hate to miss one.

I do have one extra Lazerlinez prize, if anyone feels their contest got "slighted", I would trade you.

Ed,

For the beginner, the cactus blanks will include shipping world wide, not just USA.

Prizes look good to me . The Modified cigar should get a Plaque if it can be done . I will need third place prizes for the modified and beginers contests , boxes of blanks would be fine for those . Thanks Ed .

 

[hunter-27]

:wink: I got it. Are we to post the value of the prizes as well?

Landon,

The prize values are mostly for my convenience. When I sort the prizes, I use that line to put them in "dollar order". You MAY use it, if you like, but it is certainly NOT mandatory. Some of the values are a little arbitrary--publishing them could start a debate IMO--but do whatever you prefer.

Butch,
I have lots of boxes of blanks, but I also have a couple sets of three JohnU sierra pheasant feathers---what would you prefer?

 

[ldb2000]

A set of feather blanks would be great for the modified contest but I think that the beginners would appreciate the box of blanks more . If you think I'm wrong though then whatever you decide is fine by me .

 

[ed4copies]

Hey Butch,

ANY decision is fine with me!!

THANKS!!!!!

 

[ed4copies]

What about beautiful pen---it is the only pen contest with two prizes---should it have a third??

 

[ldb2000]

I'm sorry about that , yes it should have 3 . The other set of feather blanks would be great for that if they are still available . I don't know how I missed that one .

Edit : I just checked that one and it already has 3 don't it ?

 

[ed4copies]

Ok, I'm an idiot!!! Yes, it has three Butch, Thanks

DUH!!!
