Take a kid HunTing
Pheasant Hunt: November 1, 2008
The 2008 Take a Kid Hunting Pheasant Hunt will allow properly licensed hunters with a valid youth license to hunt on one of nine
stocked Wildlife Management Areas (WMA) on Saturday morning, Nov . 1, 2008 . In a cooperative effort between the Division of Fish
and Wildlife and the New Jersey State Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs, volunteer hunting mentors with trained bird dogs will guide
youth hunters on a pheasant hunt . This experience will increase the young hunters’ opportunity for harvesting a pheasant in a setting
which encourages responsible and safe hunting practices .
All guided hunt participants must pre-register and be accompanied to the check-in by a parent or guardian . Parents or guardians
are welcomed and encouraged to fol-
low the hunters through the fields . All
pre-registered hunters will receive an
information packet . One session will be
offered, starting at 7 a .m .
Only 50 youth hunters will be
allowed on each WMA during each
session . If the number of applicants
exceeds the number of slots available,
a random drawing will be held to select
participants . To register, please send the
