Public Lands Month starts tomorrow!
Policy is at the heart of keeping public lands in public hands, and over the next month you'll see a lot from us on North American policy issues, challenges, and opportunities to take action in support of our public lands, waters and wildlife!
At the same time, we'll be launching our 30 Days of Giving campaign! The grand prize is a G&H Special Edition Hog Island skiff with a whole lot of goodies (Weatherby, G&H decoys, and more), and all proceeds will help advance BHA's conservation mission.
We have a lot going on in September, and we know you do, too. But we're excited to get up and after them again for Public Lands Month 2023!
Happy hunting!
