We here at Racks & Spurs recognize the fact that sometimes life throws you a curve and due to unforeseen and/or uncontrollable circumstances you may end up with a hardship or two that prevents you from getting out in the woods and doing what we all love to do most.... HUNT!
With that being said, I've designed this board for those who may have had a situation happen that is preventing you from getting out in God's county whether it be financial, loss of valuables and equipment due to a natural disaster, loss of job, disability, and/or any other situation that is not your fault and could not have been prevented. I would like to see this being used "responsibly" and be a great opportunity to unite as a club in helping those who truly could benefit from someone else's generosity that is in a position to help.
Now I don't expect anyone to give up something they use or have sentimental value to etc. This is a great way to help if you may have something that could help someone out if say you have a piece of equipment in your closet that is collecting dust and Joe Schmo is hurting because he had a house fire or whatever and lost some hunting equipment in it. If you can and are able then great!
To those who may be in need at any given time please don't feel as if you are asking for "hand outs" or let your pride get in the way. There is nothing wrong in saying that you need some help if there is a situation that happened you had no control over. We're all here to help and it's almost an insult if you don't rely on us here because we're family!
Now, I'm putting this up and am relying on the fact that there are good people out there that could benefit from this site in a time of need and with that being said, I'm asking that we do this on the honor system. We will consider all requests or needs as valid requests for help. Please do not ask for something you truly do not need and have just a "want" for. Again, this is done in good faith and should not be abused. As a formal disclosure, The Racks & Spurs Club will retain no liability in any given arrangement through this board between the two parties making the agreement. This is between those who wish make an arrangement and will have to be sorted between the two parties involved.
I think this will be a great way to help those who need it most and will give us all an opportunity to feel good about ourselves and the hunting community we all are proud to be a part of. Thank you and I hope you too feel that this is a great benefit to being a part of Racks & Spurs!
