MASSWILDLIFE NEWS 2013 SPRING TROUT STOCKING                               PLEASE DON’T FEED THE BEARS! SPRING EAGLE SURVEY REMINDER  ** TURKEY HUNTING REMINDERS*** HELP MASSWILDLIFE STOCK SALMON FRY                                                               REMEMBER ENDANGERED SPECIES ON YOUR STATE TAX FORM UPCOMING PUBLIC MEETINGS CALENDAR OF EVENTS

  Shooters must pre- register for this event. Contestants will compete at five shooting stations at five ranges, with a variety of weapons including: Shotgun, Rifle, Handgun, Archery, Muzzle loader, as well as Hawk (Axe) throwing and Knife throwing. This gives contestants two months to master the skills they have, and to learn any new skills that they will need. We are looking into providing loaner equipment for those who do not have all five weapons. But it is highly recommended that you “share” or “trade off” with a friend that has what you are missing, so that you have an opportunity to learn and practice with the equipment. The morning of the event is NOT the time to learn these skills! The competition will begin at 10AM and lunch is included in your entry fee. Shooters must preregister for this event.  Preregistration will be on May 19th at 9AM in the TR&G clubhouse and will be limited to the first 25 who register.  If you cannot come to the clubhouse that day, e-mail Helen Pacyna at a.pacyna@hotmail.com.
