The South Carolina Bird Hunters Association held it’s annual banquet Saturday night at the Compass Restaurant near the city of Sumter, SC. The business meeting started at 3:30PM in which the Fall 2006 and Spring 2007 field trial schedule was determined. There is still a possibility for 2 or 3 more trials to be added at a later date. The ninety six bird hunters will most likely schedule an "all stakes" trial in October.
