The McRae Community Building, Home of the Waterfowlers Hall of Fame, has a new operator, Toad Holler Bar and Grille
and opened today. Open seven days a week with breakfast from 6am to 10 am. Lunch til 4. Currently those are the starting hours.
Visited then on Facebook at Toad Holler Bar and grille for exciting updates. My family had lunch there today and were delighted2021 WHOF dinner will be at the new Toad Hollar Bar and Grille in the Mound City McRae community building on Nov.6. Squaw Creek National Wildlife refuge has been renamed Loess Bluffs NWR. To avoid confusion and over 75 years of iconic history, the Waterfowlers Hall of Fame, a historic entity itself, will now try to use both names , so as to not have to rewrite or confuse over 30 years of Our history. The Squaw Creek name carries a prestige and place of honor and esteem in our region. The renaming was made years after a local public meeting was held and all parties agreed there was no negative intent. In the hearts and history of our region, it will always be Squaw Creek. The name of the creek running thru the refuge has not changed.
Until then, stay
tuned to any
important
announcements on
our website

Joe Laukemper

On November 9th,
2013, a huge crowd attended the WHOF Sportsman dinner event at the WHOF's new home in the McRae Community Center in Mound CIty. A delicious meal was served to 167 guests, inductees, and award winning guests from the Mound City school, who had participated in a local wildlife art contest, sponsored by the local Kiwanis Club. A full report of the evenings special events may be obtained from the Mound City News. Five inductees were honored this year. An artist who was a previous inductee, Jim Pettijohn, honored the event with the donation of a hand carved wood duck and a black lab painting that he had done. These two articles will be permanently displayed at all WHOF events, and we feel very honored to be the recipient of them. Jim was able to attend, and view the many updates and improvements that have occurred in the last two years. The Klub has undergone many superb new improvements, adding kitchen space, and is offering a variety of very high quality menu items to make an evening visit to the Klub and WHOF a special evening. Joe Laukemper, president, would like to the thank all who have attended the events, donated to the events, and especially the board of directors, for their commitment to bringing this unique entity to a new level of interest in this NW Missouri waterfowl region.
