The National Assembly of Sportsmen’s Caucuses (NASC) and the Kentucky Legislative Sportsmen’s Caucus will host a policy reception during the 70th Annual Meeting of the Southern Legislative Conference in Lexington, Kentucky on Monday, July 11.
Legislators from the 15 member states of The Council of State Governments’ Southern Legislative Conference and partners are invited to the Southern Legislative Reception in honor of state sportsmen’s caucus members’ work on behalf of America’s hunters, anglers, recreational shooters, and trappers.
Also featuring an educational policy component, reception attendees will have the opportunity to learn how sportsmen’s caucuses can protect their state from the growing threats to the South’s sporting heritage.
NASC Executive Council President and Kentucky Legislative Sportsmen’s Caucus Co-Chair Senator Robin Webb said, “I am honored to host legislators in my home state to celebrate our collective commitment to protecting our country’s sporting traditions,” encouraging fellow sportsmen-legislators to attend the reception.
The Southern Legislative Reception will be held from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at Dudley’s on Short located at 259 West Short Street, Suite 125, Lexington, KY 40507. If you would like to RSVP or inquire about sponsorship opportunities, please contact the Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation Southeastern States Director, Bee Frederick, at (202) 590-0475 or bee@sportsmenslink.org.
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?
