Youth Education Programs

  The Northwest Indiana Chapter of Waterfowl U.S.A. realizes that the youth of today will be our leaders of tomorrow. With this in mind, we are working diligently to educate our youth in sound conservation practices. Today's youth needs to be taught and understand that while our waterfowl resource is a renewable resource, our wetlands are a resource that must be protected.

Youth Hunt Information

The Northwest Indiana Chapter is proud to announce our "Expand Our Youth" program. We strongly encourage the youth in our area to get involved with our organization and our conservation activities. To encourage their involvement, we are offering a special youth waterfowl hunt at the Jerry Allen Waterfowl Management Unit.

2009 Youth Hunts

Brandon Majewski and Richie Theil

 

     The above two youths were able to experience a waterfowl hunt at the Jerry Allen Marsh located in Boone Grove, Indiana in October 2009. They were able to shoot a few ducks, enjoy the morning with some of the Northwest Indiana Chapter Members and relax in a duck blind overlooking the marsh.

 

     The Northwest Indiana Chapter of Waterfowl U.S.A. thanks Brandon Majewski and Richie Theil for a wonderful hunt and we hope that they continue enjoying the outdoors and waterfowl hunting.

     Getting the youth involved in our program and  teaching the youth the importance of wetlands, nesting structures, and etc is our task. When the youth join our organization, they become an important asset to us.
