Re: Very excited!!!!!
I resent that comment! There is nothing wrong with calling to check on my "child" when she is at camp!! I have to make sure she is getting adequately spoiled and to make sure she's doing well with her studies... I am very sad that I forgot to send her a Halloween treat! haha

There's also Quail Forever and Pheasants Forver that are also great conservation groups.
