What a great day of recycling trophies! Thanks to all that donated previously and the day of the event. Thanks to the Solomonson’s for allowing us to turn their driveway into a trophy metropolis for all the locals to see and stop in and ask questions.

Thanks to the Solomonson’s, Moren’s, McPhee’s, Spletz’s and Christensen’s for spending the day dismantling, organizing, boxing and eventually hauling to storage an awesome amount of trophies! We have multiple weeks ready to go and room to store more.

If anyone is interested in donating trophies please contact us.

We will be gathering to assemble recycled trophy’s for the upcoming season on June 27th. The day will include sorting, selecting, dismantling, and boxing of the recycled trophy’s. Please E-Mail Kent Christensen @ dtr2939@gmail.com if you plan to attend so we can organize the potluck. We will be doing this at Jon Solomonson’s house. Directions below;

This banquet is a huge fundraiser for our group and a great time to socialize. Rumor has it that there is a lot of raffle items this year coming in from local businesses by our members!! You still have time to reach out to them and see what they can offer as a donation to KPI!

We are having a airbrush artist that will be airbrushing on hats and t-shirts this year. We did this a few years back and it was a huge hit, so come prepared!

There will be no KPI sponsored potluck on Saturday evening due to hotel policy, please plan accordingly.

The Annual Awards Banquet is fast approaching! April 18th is only 4 weeks away!!

Remember to reserve your room at the Holiday Inn by Tuesday March 24th! After the 24th the block of rooms will be released back to the public….So make sure you call soon!

Along with the family raffle items, be sure to check out your local businesses as well for donations to KPI.  A lot of business are willing to help, you just need to ask.

This is one of the biggest fundraisers that KPI does so let’s make this year one to remember!!
