Default Hunter/Angler Recruitment, Development & Retention planning

We need your help.

Chad and I have been contacted by Rex Amack, director of Nebraska Game & Parks, to represent the NEFGA on one or more subcommittees of the Hunter/Angler Recruitment, Development and Retention planning group.

By “partnering” with NGPC on this effort, NEFGA will have a voice in decisions that will affect the agency for many years to come.

We want to do it right, and we want the opinions we express to reflect the goals and beliefs of the NEFGA membership.

To do that, we need your help. In order to effectively represent the NEFGA membership, we’re forming a panel of NEFGA members who will work with the NEFGA directors to offer suggestions and, where appropriate, take positions on issues related to the RDR plan.

As many of you know, Chad is both a hunter and angler. I’m no longer an active hunter, although I hunted for many years, but still manage to wet a line at least 100 times a year. We need both hunters and fishermen (or fisherwomen) on this new panel. Ideally, the panel will reflect state-wide interests, not just Omaha or Lincoln.

While our panel will meet “online,” there also is a strong likelihood a panel member may be called on at times to substitute for either Chad or me at NGPC meetings in Lincoln.

Please read through the 20-year plan at

If you feel you should support this effort and would like to contribute to its success, send a PM to me expressing your interest.

(This thread is being posted in both the Fishing and Hunting forums.)
