Jack Keslar Guides Out of Kotzebue, Alaska
Jack Keslar guided the month of September for a new Alaskan Outfitter. He guided 6 hunters for grizzly and caribou out of Kotzebue, Alaska. Jack was 100% for his hunters. Everyone had a great time and were very successful. In these photos are some of the trophies that were taken. It was a new territory of Alaska for Jack which turned out very well! Alaska still has some great hunting.
Boy Scouts Visit WWM to Participate in WWM Merit Badge Program
The museum is aiding boy scouts with earning their merit badges. Through the museum's facility, volunteers and instructors we can help scouts earn 15 different merit badges. Recently we had a scout earn his shotgun shooting badge through the WWM Scout Merit Badge Program. Please contact the museum directly for more information and to schedule the program for any scouts or troops.
WWM 2nd annual Kids Fish Derby
What a gorgeous day for the WWM 2nd annual fish Derby! Thanks to all the kids that attended with their very helpful parents. Congrats to 6 yr old Sophia Marcelli who caught a 15.25 inch trout.
