At their annual Big Game Banquet, held the last Saturday in February, Peterson Cartridge employees and their families volunteered their time and brought with them ammunition donations for auction and raffle prizes. With nearly five hundred people in attendance the evening was a great success and over $200,000 was raised for conservation efforts.

Every fall over one hundred million hunters take to the woods, mountains, and fields across our great country. It is a time-honored tradition that goes back generations and one that is woven into the fabric of America. Memories will be made, old stories will be recounted, and a lot of truths will be stretched. Handshakes and congratulatory pats on the back await those who emerge victorious while conciliatory words and some good-natured ribbing are on the menu for those eating tag soup.
