TDHA would like to invite you to attend and participate the upcoming hunt event being put on by Time Warner Cable Media.(TWCM) TWCM is holding an event similar to that of our Hunt for the Hungry. They are calling it "Hunt for Hogzilla" and there will also be a IBCA Sanctioned Cook-Off, family activities, and appearance by music artists/bands. TDHA will be assisting during the weigh-in process and will also have a booth setup during the course of the event. TDHA is proud to partner with Time Warner Cable Media in an event that feeds the hungry of our Great State of Texas! September 17, 2011 Richard M. Borchard Regional Fairgrounds Robstown, TX Here is a link to the entry form and rules: http://www.tdha.org/docs/HuntforHogzillaHUNTRules&Registration.pdfHere is a link to the flyer/poster: http://www.tdha.org/images/twchuntevent.jpgYou can also visit their facebook page here: http://www.facebook.com/TheHuntforHogzillaIf you don't have facebook, the general information about this event posted on their facebook page is as follows: Founded - 2011
About - The Hunt for Hogzilla & Cook-off Feeding Local Charities in the Coastal Bend
Description - Feral hogs are an invasive species in Texas that cause over $400 million in damage to our state's agriculture, natural resources, private and public property annually. Managing this species is essentially the right and responsibility of the landowner. Landowners spend an estimated $7 million annually on control and corrective management efforts. However, in many cases, feral hogs exist in such n...umbers where management of damage cannot be conducted by individual landowners acting alone. Hunger is also a real threat in Texas where more children are food insecure than any other state. Food banks have a major role in managing this hunger gap. The state's large population of feral hogs could aid in tackling this growing hunger problem in Texas. See More
Mission - Join us for the First Annual Hunt for Hogzilla & Cook-Off event! Enjoy live entertainment, Hog Hunting, BBQ, and lots of activities for the kids.
The event is based in Robstown, but hunters are free to stalk their quarry anywhere in Texas. We will have prizes for heaviest boar and heaviest sow, in each division. Divisions are made up of Rifle, Night Vision Rifle, Dog & Knife, and Bow. We will also have bonus prizes for largest stringer and longest tusk. Awards - Want to win some serious cash? We will be giving out $28K in cash prizes to the winners of the hog hunt, and $7,800 for our BBQ Cook-Off winners! Products - For sponsorship or registration questions, please contact Lauren Morgan at (361) 446-1185 or Email lauren.morgan@twcable.com

Was very interested in seeing Time Warner supporting the event, 'till just recently had to visit TW site for support help and noticed they have an ad on their page soliciting support for the president B.O.? Wouldn't that be a conflict of interest supporting a hunting website and the liberalist?

Well I was just recently informed that my original post had been incorrect and since fixed it, i'll explain... Time Warner Cable and Time Warner Cable Media are 2 separate companies. I'm assuming we were all a little confused at first on this one, but in fact they are separate and support separate issues. They were concerned that we corrected anything that said "Time Warner Cable" without the "media" so there was no confusion as to what/who they were and who/what they supported. I will have to do some investigative work, but I believe it's Time Warner Cable that you saw with ad's for pres. B.O. I have talked personally with representative and higher ups of Time Warner Cable Media that are very much in support of events like these hunts and didn't have any problem with taking PETA 'head on' with putting on this contest.

Sounds like a great time. If I had areas to hunt down that way, and it was not so far away I would enter for sure. It is a great Idea though glad to see a big name stepping up and sponsoring.

The hunt has been cancelled. TWCM had some issues they couldn't get worked out in time so they decided to cancel it for now and hopefully will get to reschedule it for another time. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
