Wandering Aimlessly, Rich Valley Charity Squirrel Hunt
by Phil Burkhouse
The hunt began in 1999 when a few of the boys gathered at a camp in “The Valley,” perhaps sipping on some beverages. We’ll refer to these boys as Fred, Tom, Scott, Steve, John Paul, and Kevin, but those names could be entirely fictitious. They were on the cusp of initiating an adventure that would grow and change directions over the next fifteen years. A little hunting mixed with a little competition gave rise to the Rich Valley Squirrel Hunt, which would eventually become the Rich Valley Charity Squirrel Hunt.
