🤝🦃 Support Local Conservation Leadership 🦃🤝

We want to highlight a group of local sportsmen who have taken the initiative to start a new NWTF chapter in Southern Illinois.

This is their vision, their leadership, and their hard work — and we’re proud to share their upcoming event happening THIS SATURDAY.

The National Wild Turkey Federation has a strong track record of habitat and turkey conservation, and it’s great to see local momentum building.

Let’s pack the room and support them.

When good people step up for conservation, we stand behind them. 💪🌳

This Saturday, come out and enjoy a family-friendly event featuring a fantastic meal, exciting raffles, and several amazing FOID items.

🎉 Happy New Year 🎉

As we head into 2026, we encourage everyone to do one thing: VOLUNTEER.

Anywhere. Anything. Soup kitchens, local shelters, Ducks Unlimited, NWTF—whatever speaks to you.

You’ll meet incredible people, make a real impact, and become more connected to your community in ways you never expected.

Volunteer — one who freely gives their time and energy in service to others, without expectation of reward.

Selfless — putting the needs of others before one’s own, even in the face of personal hardship.

Respected — earned through integrity, kindness, and the way one treats those around them.

John Stacey embodied all of these.

John was like no man we had ever met. He lived to volunteer. He lived for his fellow man. No matter the trials or tribulations he was facing, John always carried a smile and a positive attitude that lifted everyone around him.

And if you ever needed a raffle ticket sold, John was your guy — he could sell one to your liberal sister, or even your dog. That was just John: genuine, persistent, and always smiling.

We are grateful beyond words for the time we shared with you, for the service you gave, and for the chance to know the man behind the nickname.

We’ll be having a Stag beer for you, buddy.
Thank you for everything, John Boy. You will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
