National Hunting and Fishing Day is coming up on Saturday, September 26th. Established in 1972, it celebrates the outdoors and the many wonderful activities we can enjoy there. Here’s a snippet from the history:
The first to suggest an official day of thanks to sportsmen was Ira Joffe, owner of Joffe’s Gun Shop in Upper Darby, Pa. In 1970, Pennsylvania Gov. Raymond Shafer adopted Joffe’s idea and created “Outdoor Sportsman’s Day” in the state.
As an added bonus, Yamaha is giving away a Grizzly 550 FI. Head to the home page to learn more about the event and hit the Yamaha link in the lower left to sign up for the prize.
