Larose Forest Day
NOTICE FOR YOUTH HUNTING DAY!
The Prescott-Russell Stewardship Council in partnership with the South Nation Conservation Authority and Delta Waterfowl are organizing a Youth Hunting Day to take place Sunday October 5th, 2008. The goal will be to introduce local youth in the “Hunter Apprenticeship Safety Program” to waterfowl hunting in Eastern Ontario.
 
We are looking for approximately 10 youth between the ages of 12 and 15 to participate in this educational opportunity focussing on safety and hunting ethics. The cost of the Hunters Safety and Canadian Firearms course will be covered by the organizers and special presentations will be offered by MNR Conservation Officers, waterfowl hunting guides and representatives from the organizing agencies.
If you are between the ages of 12 and 15, a resident of the United Counties of Prescott-Russell and would like to apply, or if you are a property owner willing to allow goose hunting on your farm, please contact:
