We have spots left on the Junior's bar gun board! The firearm up for grabs is this shiny gold AR! A cool addition to any collection!

If interested in this gun or just supporting hunter recruitment in the greater Sauk area, stop down at Junior's, get a cold drink (or two), and get your square before they sell out! $20/ square, 100 squares total.
