Iowa FNAWS Banquet Auction 2025

Auction Details

In the early to mid-1970s a small group of mountain hunters got together.
These were not your common, ordinary hunters. These were a small, energetic group of people who had hunted wild sheep hiked the mountains, which these incredible animals inhabit.
They had been infected with what we call “sheep fever.”
With the help of Bob Householder of the Grand Slam Club, Jim Froelich of Wisconsin got the names of the Midwestern hunters who had taken some or all of the four North American species of wild sheep.
Jim’s efforts resulted in about a dozen of these infected sheep hunters getting together in Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin, to trade stories about their adventures.
After his gathering and ones to follow, this group worked to ensure that future generations of hunters would have the opportunity to climb the mountains in pursuit of wild sheep.

They wanted to organize a group that could make this happen—in essence, to give back for what they had been privileged to do.
Iowans were a big part in these early years of organization, with Lloyd Zeman of Des Moines; Dr. Roy Schultz, Avoca; Dr. Jerry Waite, Fenton; and others making things happen.
The results were the Foundation for North American Wild Sheep (FNAWS) was incorporated as a nonprofit wildlife organization in Des Moines, Iowa, in 1977.
Numerous other Iowans are noted in the first 100 members of FNAWS.
Lloyd Zeman was the first president and was followed by Dr. Roy Schultz.
Other Iowans who followed as presidents of National FNAWS were Jerry Christians, Story City; Dr. Jerry Waite, Fenton; Tom Hinders, Ames; and Ted Schutte, Sibley.
For 20- plus years the official magazine “Wild Sheep” was printed at Sigler Printing in Ames Iowa.
