The Ruffed Grouse Society (RGS) will hold its Inaugural Conservation Fundraiser Dinner at The Inn at Fredericksburg Square on Wednesday, February 24, 2010.  The gala begins with an open bar reception party at 6 p.m., immediately followed by a gourmet choice dinner of Roasted Sea Bass, Filet Mignon or Vegetarian at 7 p.m.

In true RGS fashion, the event will feature live and silent auctions, highlighted with the finest selection of quality firearms and fly-fishing equipment by renowned manufactures such as Beretta, Caesar Guerini, Connecticut Shotgun Manufacturing Company, Abel, Otto Beck, Orvis and others; along with outstanding trips afield and astream with the likes of Art Lee and Dave Brandt; an array of original wildlife collector art, and an assortment of one of a kind collectables.

In addition, each attendee will receive a RGS commemorative pocket knife by Case.

Attendance is $500 per plate with all proceeds used to further the protection and management of our forests for ruffed grouse, American woodcock and other forest wildlife, both hunted and non-hunted.  Several tables of six are still available at $2,900.
