National Get Outdoors Day
Parker Canyon Lake

Cochise County, Arizona
June 9th, 2018

What:  The Huachuca Gould’s Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation participated in National Get Outdoors Day with other local, public service groups

When:  June 9th, 2018.

Where:  Parker Canyon Lake, Cochise County, Arizona     

General Information:  For another year, the Huachuca Gould’s Chapter celebrated National Get Outdoors Day with other service organizations in the area.  This event was sponsored by the Coronado National Forest, Sierra Vista Ranger District and held at Parker Canyon Lake.

The event encourages families to enjoy the great outdoors in their own “neighborhood”.  A variety of groups gave demonstrations and offered information for their representative interests.  Other exhibitors included Huachuca Area Herpetological Society; Huachuca Mineral and Gem Club, St. Means Sit Dog Training, Coronado National Forest, Tucson Audubon Society, Arizona State Parks, Department of Homeland Security, Fort Huachuca Cultural Resources, National Park Service, and Arizona Game and Fish Department.

The Huachuca Gould’s Chapter set up an information booth and inflatable BB gun range.  On the range, shooting skills and gun safety were taught.  Next door at the booth, Chapter members fielded questions on purpose and activities of the organization.  The up-coming Annual Hunters Heritage Banquet and JAKES Day were highlighted, also.

The weather was very pleasant for a mid-June day.  The warm temperatures were tempered by increasing cloud cover and a smattering rain showers. 
B
y mid-afternoon, National Get Outdoors Day concluded.  Over 110 shooters completed their safe firearms training.  It was another fun and successful day of public-oriented service and spreading the word about the Huachuca Gould’s Chapter.

​Wayne Kaiser organized the Chapter’s participation in the event.  Helping him were Chapter members Dave Kemnitz, Dave Winiesdorffer, Rene Dube, Randy Keiller, John Millican, and Tom Deecken.
