ORD — Folks are invited to kick-off the New Year with the annual Ord Post Prom Varmint Hunt.
Two-person teams can join in on January 1st and 2nd with everything culminating with a chili dinner at the Ord Fire Hall on Saturday.
As far as the hunt, Ron Bower and company are looking for a variety of animals. “Bobcat, coyote, coon, badger, possum and skunk,” he explains. “We do a point system and skunk and possum are two points a piece, the badger four, coon is three, bobcat fifteen and coyote are twenty.”
Cash prizes will be awarded to the winners and all of the proceeds go to benefit the Ord Junior-Senior Post-Prom Party. Registration is $50-per-team and begins at 2 PM and runs until 8 PM on Friday at the Fire Hall.
Check-in is on Saturday at Petska Fur Shed by 5 PM.
