In May of 2024 I had the opportunity to fly across the big salty pond to South Africa where I did some night hunting with Johan Pietrese. This was my 3rd time on the African continent (2nd time in South Africa). I've only done day hunts.  This was my first night hunt and I had no idea what to expect. My quest was a serval.

As we travel back to Michigan after wrapping up 2024 Indoor Archery Nationals in Owensboro, KY, I can’t help but be immensely grateful for SCI’s sponsorship for this great group of youth archers.

Our trip left from Sitka, Alaska. Bert Stromquist picked us up at the airport and took us to his store, the Orion, to purchase our fishing licenses. We also shopped in the local grocery store and liquor store by his store for additional items we thought we might enjoy.

One of the most interesting states to apply for hunts is Texas. They have a HUGE variety of hunts to apply for.

Big Buck Night 2025

This past summer me, dad and brother Zane planted food plots so we could give the deer a variety of food to eat come fall.  We practiced over the summer with the crossbow as I did last year but this time, I could go and hunt during the archery season and not just the youth season.

The 46th Annual Mid-Michigan Hunters Fundraiser Gala was an overwhelming SUCCESS!! We had an excellent overall event with a great turnout of attendees, and we’ve welcomed both old and new Outfitters and Vendors to exhibit at our show.  My Thanks and Gratitude goes out to everyone who came and participated, we couldn't have done such a great show without you!  We are on track to raise a hefty amount of money to support our Chapter initiatives and support SCI International's goals of conservation, outdoor sportsman, and hunting rights.

On Saturday June 29th, I had the opportunity to go Salmon fishing with Dutchman Charters out of Grand Haven. After four months of planning and eager anticipation the weekend finally came. My boyfriend, Erik, and I packed up my Jeep and headed towards Lake Michigan.

In January of 2024, Don and I flew from Detroit to Ft. Lauderdale to Manaus on the Rio Negro, a tributary off the Amazon River in Brazil.  Our daughter, Ann, and her husband, Mark, our son, Todd, and his girlfriend, Tracy, went with us.  We had always wanted to fish for Peacock Bass and while at the SCI Convention in Nashville last year, found their booth and booked this trip.

It all started at the Mid-Michigan Safari Club convention and the adventure began. On September 8, 2023, my husband Paul and I flew out of the Gerald R. Ford International Airport in Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Atlanta. Next stop: Johannesburg, South Africa!

On Saturday, April 13th our Mid-Michigan Chapter of SCI put on our annual awards and big buck night.  Our big buck night is usually in January, but the only big storm of the year coincided with that weekend so it was combined with our awards night.
