Benefit Hunt, Deep South Running Pen, Good man needs our Help
Richard Traylor of Poplarville, MS was dagnosed with brain cancer a few months ago. He is a self employed, hard-working man, he, his wife, and kids have lived off the land for many years. He has no health insurance and is needing a helping hand. The hospitals in Hatiesburg told him he had no chance of survival, so he and his family seeked a 2nd opinion at M.D. Anderson in Texas. They told him they could get rid of it, but he would need nearly $100,000 to get started. They have already done the surgery removing 80% of the tumor. They will proceed to get the other 20% with kemo and radiation. they are out of money. They have mortgaged thier land and house, thier in-laws have all mortgaged thier places. there was a benefit rodeo put on a few weeks ago in his honor and over 60,000 close to 70,000 was raised. We as fox hunters need to help a lil. These are good people that need our help, his children need thier daddy to stick around for a while.

Re: Benefit Hunt, Deep South Running Pen, Good man needs our Help
Bird you hit me hard with this.I lost a GREAT freind to the same thing 2 years ago.
I would love to come to this hunt but it is 15 hours from Norwich Kansas to the deep south pen.
So I got to thinking (some people say this is not good ) I would like to pay the entery fee for a young hunter to enter a hound in this hunt.
I would like for you boys down there to find a kid that would like to run a dog.
If you find a kid that dose not have a hound I am sure that you guys will lend a GOOD hound to the kid.
What do you think?
This way it would be a double win, I help out the family and also a future hunter.
The check will be in the mail in the morning.
Re: Benefit Hunt, Deep South Running Pen, Good man needs our Help
Kevin that is a great idea. I know a bunch of kids around our area that love to hunt. I will pay for one of them to put someone's or their own hound in the hunt. Thanks for your help.
Re: Benefit Hunt, Deep South Running Pen, Good man needs our Help
Glad to help out. You did see where I said a GOOD hound, if they are hard to find I suppose I could call J.W. and see if Red Gal is open that day
Cant wait for my next trip down to the coast so I can meet you and good luck with the hunt.
Are you coming up to the wolf hound classic?

We ran at Picayune again this Saturday morning. Had a red fox race on each side of the Boneyard rd for over 2 hours, constantly crossing the road. a gray fox race come between the 2. I saw 4 different coyote races going at once after the red fox got away. The pen is getting right boys. Had jam up running again.

Guys I have been recieving a good bit of donations from you. Thanks to all that have and are sending stuff. I will post tomorrow who all I have recieved things from.
If those of you know you won't be able to make the hunt and have numbers please turn them back in. More people are waiting for some good numbers, thanks .
We have around 150 numbers out so far.
Re: Benefit Hunt, Deep South Running Pen, Good man needs our Help
Added to the list of good things will be "2 sacks of live crawfish". Whether they will be auctioned off or cooked and sold by the plate is still to be determined. Got a bunch of dog feed, several certificates, very nice blankets, and some jam up food. Gonna be a few cakes and other things to be auctioned. If you can, come check it out. I expect over 100 head easily and should have plenty of judges.
Been running there the past 4 weekends, been having outstanding running.
