Youth Group Program

The next Youth Group Program will be meeting Thursday, November 18th @ 7:00pm at the clubhouse.  We will have a presentation on the biology and hunting of
Whitetail Deer. We will have some specimens and will discuss hunting
seasons, tactics and weapons. For further information, contact Dick Elliott @ 315-655-9847.

The 2021 Youth Pheasnt Hunt was a success.  We had 9 youth hunters, and everyone went away with at least one bird apiece.  Special thanks to Dick Elliott, Brian Skeval, Todd Fillinger, CR Haaf & his Pudelpointer dog, Winston, and everyone else that helped!  We could not have done this without you all!!

 

The objective of the Youth Group is to introduce boys and girls to knowledge and skills related to various outdoor subjects and activities. We have typically held monthly evening meetings at the Club House (with occasional weekend outside activity or field trip)at which a subject will be discussed by some knowledgeable person. The following is a summary of subjects we have done in the past. Most of these could be repeated and additional subjects could be presented.
