Warner Smith from Garmin/TT Fights ALS - NBHA to Help

Post by PntrRookie » Tue Apr 19, 2016 7:27 am

Hopefully this post is OK to post here, if not please let us know...

Two years ago, Warner Smith from Garmin/Tri Tronics was diagnosed with ALS, a progressive, neurodegenerative disease. Warner has been a big supporter of the National Bird Hunters Assoc. for many years.

The NBHA would like to support a fundraiser being held June 24th on his behalf. http://www.kgun9.com/news/local-news/fo ... ks-to-help

Along with the support of Purina, the NBHA will raffle off 12 bags of Purina Pro Plan. Each ticket is $25. ALL the proceeds will be presented to the organization putting on the fundraiser.

Checks can be made out to the NBHA and mailed to the address below. Upon receipt of your check, your ticket(s) will be mailed to you and one will be kept for the drawing. The drawing will take place Sunday night, June 5th at 5 pm. An image of the winning ticket will be posted online and emailed to the winner.

Thanks!

Warner has been a great contact for Tri tronics Garmin and the sport dog world I just got tickets and also reserved a room for the Starr Pass To do the friday night June 24 through the 26th Banquet Golf and to help out on Saturday
If any one can donate and or come to the fundraiser What a way to give back
Warner has a beautiful 5 year old daughter and ALS is nasty he is 2 years into the prognosis and is already having to use braces and walkers we do not know how much time Warner has left but the fundraiser is ther to help how ever it can for the fight Warner has in front of him
