The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation is hosting “Women For Wildlife, A Ladies Night Out: A Denim & Diamonds Affair” Saturday, Oct. 29 at the Hilton Garden Inn, 1840 U.S. 93 S., in Kalispell.

Many guns are up for live and silent auction, along with games and raffles.

The evening begins with a cocktail social at 5 p.m. and dinner at 7 p.m., followed by a live auction for firearms, world-class wildlife art, unique collectibles, home furnishings and much more.

“Money raised at our ladies banquet will go toward on-the-ground conservation and hunting heritage projects here in our own backyard of Kalispell, while also assisting elk and elk country across the nation,” said Patti Kurschat, Chapter co-chair. “We promise a good time for a great cause and we’re proud of our continuing support for RMEF’s conservation work here and across the country.”

Since 1984, the foundation has enhanced or conserved more than 6.5 million acres of habitat — nearly all on public lands — for elk and other wildlife. It has also opened or secured access to more than 715,000 acres of land for public access for hunting, fishing and other recreation.

Tickets are $30 per person, or $350 for a reserved table for 10 that includes $200 in free Ultimate Raffle tickets,
