Wild game dinner, charity auction February 21

By Laurel Robertson
ine on the wild side! At this year’s Wild Game Dinner, dig into all-you-can-eat elk enchiladas, pheasant gumbo, rabbit dumplings, and a dozen other exotic offerings with all the trimmings — all while helping children, families and seniors in Dripping Springs live happier, safer lives. The 25th annual Dripping Springs Wild Game Dinner and Charity Auction Saturday, February 21, will fill the Dripping Springs High School cafeteria with the finest in Hill Country native and exotic fare and offer one of the largest live and silent auctions around. Dripping Springs’ largest annual fundraiser is organized by the United Methodist Men of the Dripping Springs United Methodist Church. All proceeds from the dinner and auctions benefit local charities such as the Friends Founda-
tion, the Burke Center for Youth, Helping Hands, and the Hill Country Senior Citizens Activity Center - and missions and ministries of the DSUMC, including Boy Scouts, Kairos Prison Ministry and the DS Adult Education Program. Proceeds from last year’s dinner topped $90,000. All the wild game is donated by local hunters and exotic game ranches and cooked by the Methodist Men. Kitchen staff at the high school cook side dishes and help serve. The Dripping Springs United Methodist Women provide tables full of desserts, and singer-songwriter Clay McClinton will entertain with his Texas Roots music during the meal. New this year is the Kid Zone, a structured and supervised event in the high school’s gym where kids four years through fifth grade can be entertained during the evening’s auctions.
