Day out with Eagles

[Berkut]

I considered donating a day out with the Goldies(for 1 person ) in the coming season in order to raise funds for the Andean Project.I don,t know what reaction this would receive so I am "testing the water" as it were.
It would consist of a day out in prime hare country with 2 golden eagles.If necessary hotel accommodation ( 1 night ) close to the hunting ground would be organised and paid for by me.I would also supply a packed lunch and transport from the hotel.Consideration would have to be given to a previous thread of mine relating to "stepping on toes " where land is concerned.
There are one or two on the forum have spent time with me doing this and may post as their enjoyment of such a day.
All the best.

I think it is an excellent idea for a very worthwhile cause, well done Berkut!
He deserves everyones support on this, maybe the raffle idea could work, allowing even people on a tight budget to experience the true wonder of flying these eagles in a hunting environment.
If everyone on the forum bought at least 1 ticket?
Ben and the Andean project would be well and truly launched on their way!

[Tony15]

i think the ticket idea is a great idea:lol:

[MikeGyr]

thought this was a tester?

[Berkut]

It seems it moved from a tester to a goer.
If a mod adjusts the thread accordingly and decides on the best way to go with this I shall go along with it.There may be complications with a raffle,but if they can be overcome and that is decided ,so be it or alternatively we can go down the auction route.Whatever is decided my contribution stands.

[MikeGyr]

well tell me if its a goa lol

[Mary Quite Contrary]

lets do it as a raffle then all can join in

i will second that. Plus it will attract those that are further away to buy also, rather than bidding a coupla hundred then paying for travel.

[MickeyDredd]

The opportunity to spend a day seeing quality eagles fly on quality land at an abundance of mountain hare would be well worth the £10 ticket price.

You do have to put up with Berkut's company though ;) :lol:

Every silver lining has a cloud!!! LOL

A raffle is easy..........everyone sends hawkmaster/finnish their money. They put our membership numbers in a bag and they pull out a winner.

I LIKE THE IDEA.............

All we need is an address to send our cash to. :supz: :supz: :supz:

The cash goes to Ben , Barbary Boys cousin .

[Ben C]

Surely it needs to be collected first to see who goes in the hat. THEN OFF TO BEN :supz: :supz: :supz:

[Sandeep]

Hi Berkut

I would like to buy a couple of tickets... Let me know on how to make payments. Thanks

[John Soulsby]

Love the idea, I'm in for a couple of tickets.

John

[Mary Quite Contrary]

if you can sell 49 tickets then we can each pick our numbers between 1 and 49.

Then let the lottery bonus ball decide, no arguments about favoritism or back handers then.

Money sent to HM or whoever is responsible.

[MickeyDredd]

Money sent to HM or whoever is responsible.

That rules out Blackbird then ;) :lol:

[Ben C]

He'd spend it on robust women with big bangers knowing our Tim.:supz: :supz:

[Blaze]

Im up for the raffle!...but cant afford the auction...maybe tickets could be bought at the falconers fair?

[Blaze]

Also would the day out have to be held on a weekend???

[Nemesis]

Hi all we could have a poll to se who would be intrested in a raffel then would have some idea of how many tickets needed put the names of those who do in a hat pull out name of lucky ****** /dave

[Berkut]

The day can be any day of the week that suits the winner.

[Game & Pursuit Falcon UK]
