COSHOCTON – The Muskingum Valley Chapter of the NWTF (National Wild Turkey Federation) held its annual banquet at Lake Park Pavilion on Saturday evening, March 7. Those in attendance enjoyed a delicious meal catered by Schumaker Farms and took part in various raffles with the opportunity to win prizes – with the main purpose to raise money for the NWTF and the JAKES program in Coshocton County. Attendees came from Coshocton and several surrounding counties. Billed as the largest NWTF banquet in the state of Ohio, the committee never fails to impress with the opportunity to walk away with nice prizes. Local auctioneer Greg Rice of Peddicord Rice Auction Realty along with his son John was the auctioneer. Greg praised Dwaine Scheetz for the hundreds of hours that he devotes to the banquet and Scheetz was given a standing ovation. Scheetz himself thanked each member of the committee for their service and thanked those that attended. Pictured is 3-year-old Keegan Carey, son of Nic and Lee Anne Carey, who helped Greg at the banquet.
