(For Reservations call 479-967-7500. For a group rate, let them know you are with the ATA). The sale will proceed
as follows: 6:30 AM: We will begin issuing lot numbers and lot tags at the front door for those of you who do not
already have one reserved. You must pay the $10.00 fee before you will be issued a lot number. ( *To reserve a lot number,
see below). Do not bring your fur in until you are told to do so 8:00 AM: The auction will begin and you
will be expected to move all of your fur to the table. If you want to pull out ("PO") a lot after the final bid, you must
do so before it leaves the auction table. When all of your fur has been sold, it will be taken to the Buyer's tables. You
must first go to the Secretary's table to pay your commission and you will then be given your receipts to take to the Buyer's
tables to collect your money. You must have no more than 5 green beaver per bundle of fur and no more than 10
green raccoons per bundle. NO EXCEPTIONS! (You may have as many bundles as you like per slot). You will be charged
25¢ per slot. There will be a seperate table at the sale for tagging your otters and bobcats. You will be responsible
for getting them tagged. If they come up on the auction table and are not tagged, they will not be sold! Sellers
must be ATA members! (Memberships will be available at the sale). Members must donate 5% commission as soon as
your fur is sold. We will not allow "outside deals" (with the exception of deer hides or horns). All
fur will go across the auction table for all buyers to bid on. In case of bad weather (snow or ice), please contact
Dub Shankle @ 479-997-1035; or Cindy Bass @ 870-612-5347 for information about re-scheduling. *In order for members
to obtain your reserved lot number, send your name, address, phone number, & hunting license number along with a $10.00
check or money order to:

Your reservation must be received no later than January 1st, 2007. When
you sell your fur, this deposit will be subtracted from the commission you owe. If you choose not to send the reservation
fee to reserve a number, when you arrive at the sale you will be given the next available lot number after you pay your $10.00
deposit. You must pay this deposit in order to receive a number. We will have a random drawing after January
1st to assign the lot numbers. As soon as the numbers are drawn, you will receive a postcard in the mail, advising you of
your assigned number.
