The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife's (WDFW) National Hunting and Fishing Day celebration is a great, family-oriented way to introduce youth to target shooting, hunting and fishing. It's also an opportunity to recognize that hunters and anglers continue to be among the most active supporters of wildlife management and conservation.
This year's event will take place on Sept. 28, 2019, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Tacoma Sportsmen's Club in Puyallup.
Youth 17 years and younger who attend the event with an accompanying adult can shoot WDFW firearms, archery equipment and air rifles for free. Agency staff and WDFW hunter education instructors will be on hand to teach shooting safety and provide instruction and guidance.
The event also features:
Conservation organization displays and info
Door prize drawings
Fun giveaways
Casting practice
Knot tying
Fish prints
Track plaster casting
