THE FUTURE OF HUNTING OF SHOOTING AND HUNTING WORKSHOP
After 33 years is was
evident that we needed to stop, re-evaluate a long-time and successful program
with our partners at DEC and within the Cooperative Extension community.
We were getting stale and maybe redundant it was time to end our efforts or to
make significant changes that are relative to 2020.
Attached is a
flier for a new program which is designed to be more relevant to those who
shoot and hunter or otherwise enjoy the out-of-doors in the Empire State.
Some of the presenters and themes will be familiar while a new cadre of programs,
instructors and initiatives will be introduced. Health issues are
becoming more of a problem, from Lyme disease to other tick borne diseases,
safety issues in response to recent hunter incident reports and equally
important the changing demographics of our participants. We need to
change how to teach, what we teach and field experiences. There is a
significant decline in what participants have done before they enter the
program.
The agenda is
developing as specific needs are filled. We will have a full day of opportunities
as we address the challenges that lie ahead. Expect to participate and
provide feedback. It will be your event and your decision about the
future of this adventure.
On February 1, 2020 the NEW YORK SHOOTING SPORTS in a new series at the CCE Educational Center in Ballston and the first 200 paid instructors,presenterswill receive a special
