The Arkansas State Youth Championship was held last Saturday, October 17th hosted by the Garner Coonhunting Club in Garner, Arkansas. A special thanks to Ron Cooper of the AR Youth Association for sending in the results. Further, Cooper reports the following "Alan, we hunted 28 dogs and showed 33. The hunt was a huge success. I felt it very honorable to mention that Bucky and Michelle Six donated a Briar Jacket and Briar Bibs in memory of their son Tristan. This prize went to the overall Treeing contest winner."

Thanks,

Ron Cooper

It appears as though the young ladies out-did the boys this year when it comes to getting their photos made in the Winners Circle. Great job ladies! UKC congratulates all the winners as well as all those who participated in the 2009 Arkansas State Youth Championship.
