Our good
friend Brad Powe was never without a smile or a helping hand for a
friend. Brad loved hunting turkeys and hogs, being in the
outdoors, and fishing. Sadly, he lost his life in an accident in
March of 2011.
The Brad Powe Memorial Hog Rodeo was
begun in September of 2011 to raise monies for a scholarship fund in his
name. The Brad Powe Memorial Scholarship Fund, a 501c3
organization, awarded the first scholarship to Cade Ingram in May of
2012. The second scholarship was awarded to Blake Strickland in
May of 2013. Cade is currently attending the University of Alabama
and Blake is attending the University of Mobile. Alex Hutcheson
was awarded the scholarship in the spring of 2014 and will be attending
Auburn University this fall.
You are invited to join us for the
4rd Annual Hog Rodeo in Possum Bend, Alabama, just outside of Camden, on
September 11-13, 2014. Hunters may enter either the dog, trapping,
or stalk hunting categories. We invite the entire community to join us on
Saturday evening starting at 5:30 PM for an evening of fun including
musical entertainment, lots of good food, and the awards
presentation.
At the end of the evening you will enjoy a hog hunt on the big screen
featuring "Scentblocker's The Chase with Leigh and
Travis." This show was filmed at the third annual hunt in
September of 2013. See Leigh and Travis knock down over a dozen hogs with
their muzzleloaders in the swamps of Wilcox
County.
Raffle tickets are being sold
for a February hog hunt with The Chase along with a Traditions
Strikerfire muzzleloader and accessories. Tickets are $10 each and
will be available during the rodeo. The drawing will be held the
night of September 13.
