Hunter Education Program:
Attendance was down somewhat in 2018 after a record numbers the previous year. A total of 46 higher education students earn their certificates. Typically, 3 courses are run each year. In the spring we work with the Lake Linden-Hubbell schools in an after-school program. Our regular courses are held on three Wednesday evenings and a Saturday in July and August. In the fall a field day is held for students would take an online course. If you know someone who would like to take a hunter education course, please contact Keith Macheila at the number below.
Every spring Mark Hughes and Jim Hamlett traveled a Camp Nesbit to work with kids in the sixth-grade archery program. The club has a great crew of DNR certified instructors. If you’re interested in becoming a certified instructor, please contact Keith and 296–0365.
Deer feeding program:
During this harsh winter the club has 15 register deer feeding stations for a total of 20 ½ tons of purchased deer feeding. The number of deer at each station varies each week based on weather conditions. Without the feeding program many deer would not have survived the winter. Thanks to all will make donations to help support their 2018/19 deer feeding program.
Best Regards,
Tom Grimm, President

Deer Feeding:
Historically, we have given a high priority to helping deer survive the harsh Keweenaw winters. A large portion of our funds is dedicated for winter deer survival. As sportsmen, we have observed first hand the benefits of this feeding program. Due to the extreme winter conditions, the Keweenaw deer population is low. The feeding program helps keep the herd at a socially acceptable level. Click on the Feed the Deer button below to help!
