A new carving class has been added to the contest. This is class 17.5 called WOLVERINE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS and is sponsored by a Michigan fish decoy collector. This is a purchase award contest for a swim tested decorative Lake Sturgeon, with a minimum 14 inch length. The decoy must be at least 1/3 hand painted, have a wood tail, and glass eyes. The purchase awards are $900.00 for 1st place and $800.00 for 2nd place. Top 5 places receive ribbons and award certificates at the NFDA Awards Banquet that Saturday evening. Carvers that want to enter this class must have at least two entries in the John Jensen Nationals, classes 4 thru 11. This is a qualification we have on most purchase award classes. This is all part of The Gathering, 24th annual Sporting Collectible, Art, Duck and Fish Decoy Show at at the community center in Perham, Minnesota.
