The Sportsmen's Benev- olence Fund administered by the DNR Division of Law Enforcement provides grants to Hoosiers Feeding the Hungry, the Dubois County Sportsmen Club, and Hunt- ers and Farmers Feeding the Hungry to pay for processing fees when hunters donate le- gally harvested deer. Participating in the pro- gram is simple: • Enjoy a deer hunting ex- perience. • Harvest a deer. • Drop off the field- dressed deer at a local par- ticipating processor. • Processing fees are paid for by the Sportsmen's Be- nevolence Fund. • The processor will cre- ate healthy venison burger to distribute to food banks. The participating orga- nizations notify food banks throughout Indiana when venison is ready to be col- lected from certified Sports- men's Benevolence Fund butchers. The food banks distribute venison to soup kitchens and food pantries. As a result of the 2020 deer hunting seasons, the Sportsmen's Benevolence Fund provided funding to process more than 360 har- vested deer that resulted in more than 20,650 pounds of venison being donated.

Lunsford placed fourth in 2020, second in 2019, second in 2018 and fifth in 2017. This year, however, he ended up beating out two pre- vious winners of the Mr. Olym- pia title, Shaun Clarida, who placed second, and Kamal El- gargni, who place third. "I'm grateful beyond be- lief to be the 212 Mr. Olym- pia. I want to honor and cher- ish this title. And I won't let it change who I am or my core values, especially as a follower of Christ. I will not take it for granted either. It's important that I find a balance of excite- ment with appreciation and us- ing this opportunity to grow as a professional," said Lunsford. Derek Lunsford, in February of 2011 as a Pike Central wrestler, shows his de- termination to complete the switch during the overtime of his title match at 130 with Kaleb Chambers. He completed the switch and held on for a 4-3 win in two overtimes. Photo from Press-Dispatch archive
