Box 10626 <br />RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27605-0626 <br />(919) 833-1923 <br />FAX (919) 829-1192 <br /> <br />Susie Bonds <br />Clerk to Board <br />P.O. Box 707 <br />Concord, NC 28026 <br /> <br />Dear Ms. Bonds, <br /> <br />Last year the Cabarrus County Commissioners declared the fourth Saturday in September as <br />Hunting and Fishing Day. I am writing to ask that this issue be included on the agenda for an <br />upcoming Commission meeting so that they might consider issuing a similar proclamation this <br />year. <br /> <br />The N.C. Wildlife Federation believes that the positive roles of the sporting public should not go <br />unrecognized. Sportsmen and women provide revenues to protect and enhance fish and wildlife <br />populations and to improve the quantity and quality of wildlife habitat. In addition, the strong <br />conservation ethic among true sportsmen and women should not be ignored. <br /> <br />Enclosed is a sample proclamation for Hunting and Fishing Day, a sample press release and a <br />postage paid postcard to let us know if your county is joining us in recognizing September 23th <br />as Hunting and Fishing Day. Thank you for this opportunity to recognize an important piece of <br />our national heritage. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Chuck Rice, Chairman <br />National Hunting and Fishing Day <br /> <br />/Igw <br />enclosures <br /> <br />cc: Allen Basala, President - NCWF <br /> NCWF Regional Vice Presidents <br /> NCWF District Directors <br /> NCWF Affiliate Wildlife Clubs <br /> <br /> <br />
