Stearns County Pheasants Forever - Banquet
41th Spring Banquet Planned For March 9th, 2024
Our committee decides how 100% of all the funds we raise are used. This banquet is the only source of revenue that allows Stearns County Pheasants Forever to accomplish our mission of conservation of pheasants, quail and other wildlife through habitat improvement, public awareness, education, and land management policies and programs.
