OutdoorHub 04.22.14
GalleryofGuns.com, one of the nation’s top firearms websites, announces the funding of a youth hunter scholarship as well as awards for deserving “Champions of Hunter Education” instructors in conjunction with the International Hunter Education Association.
Bryan Tucker, CEO of Davidson’s, said “Youth hunters are indeed the future of this proud American heritage. Hunting, responsibility, and resource conservation go hand in hand and we believe it is vital to encourage the continued efforts of both the instructors as well as the young hunters themselves.”
The “Champions of Hunter Education” program will solicit nominations for outstanding youth hunting instructors that go above and beyond in mentoring novice youth hunters and providing hunters’ education. Six instructors per year will receive a free hunting firearm from GalleryofGuns.com as commemoration of their efforts.
In addition, one essay per year will be selected from all essays written and entered by the youth hunting students for consideration to the IHEA. The winning essayist will be awarded a $5,000 “Future Leaders of Conservation” scholastic scholarship.
