The Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation (CSF) Board of Directors welcomed three conservation leaders in 2019 to support CSF’s mission of protecting and advancing hunting, angling, recreational shooting, and trapping in the halls of government.
Joining 30 other leaders, incoming Board members include: Tuck Beckstoffer (Tuck Beckstoffer Wines), Francisco Bergaz (Bekun, LLC, and Bervest, LLC), and Bruce Pettet (Leupold & Stevens, Inc.).
Leading the Board this year is Chairman Jason Hornady (Hornady Manufacturing), Vice-Chair Brad Johnson (United Sporting Companies), Secretary Simon Roosevelt (Olimpia Fund Management), and Treasurer Ralph Castner (Rush Creek Advisors, LLC).
“With leaders from different backgrounds and across various industries, CSF has a unique and strong Board that is proactive in its mission of protecting and advancing pro-hunting, angling, and recreational shooting policies,” said CSF Board Chairman Jason Hornady. “For 30 years, CSF has been an active partner in advancing pro-sportsmen’s legislation, and the strength of this Board continues to show our support in helping them to move the needle.”
This year’s outgoing Board members include former Chairman Paul Miller (Adams Arms, LLC), Jeanne Mitchell (ExxonMobil) and John Green (Crossroads Strategies, LLC).
“Paul Miller, Jeanne Mitchell, and John Green were instrumental to the success of CSF over the past three years during their terms,” said CSF President Jeff Crane. “We are very grateful for their dedication of time and resources to CSF’s mission.”
Studies conducted at both the state and federal level have found that the number of hunters and trappers have been on a generally declining trend over the past several decades. To increase recruitment, retention, and reactivation (R3) of hunters and trappers, which initiative do you think would have the greatest impact?
