It has been announced that Thomas M. McInnis, a partner in the auction marketing organization Iron Horse
Auction Company Rockingham, N.C., has been chosen to conduct the Annual
Fundraising Auction of the Congressional Sportsmen Caucus in Washington, D.C.
The Congressional Sportsmen Caucus was formed to protect the interest of
sportsmen and stands in support of hunting, fishing and conservations. More

state, are affiliated with the caucus.
The event will be held at the Hyatt Regency on Capitol Hill on September
28th. Mr. McInnis has long been a supporter of wildlife conservation and the
shooting sports. He has conducted fundraising auctions for many national
wildlife conservation organizations over the past 30 years, including Ducks
Unlimited, Quail Unlimited, National Wild Turkey Federation, Trout Unlimited,
Waterfowl USA and NC Waterfowl Association. He is recognized in the auction
industry as an authority on auction fundraising events, having conducted
numerous seminars throughout the United States on the subject.
Mr. McInnis states, “It is a great honor to be chosen from all auctioneers
in the world to conduct this important event. I look forward to the challenge
and I am confident that we will set a record or two at the event. I look
forward to working with many of the members of the United States Congress who
are affiliated with this important group.”
Mr. McInnis is a member of the National Auctioneers Association and
currently serves on their Board of Directors.
