I apologize for the late emailing of the June Edition of the CFHA "PACKBASKET" but its been a very busy month for everyone! Some of the things going on this month have been:
- CFHA represented the trappers of Connecticut at the Cabelas Outdoor Appreciation Day on June 13th. We were welcomed by the Cabelas staff and had over 200 people visit our booth. It was such a good showing we've been invited back to additional events coming up!
- The CFHA and The Nutmeg State Council of Sportsmen (Pleaseworked tirelessly with many other organizations including to help push the Sunday hunting bill through! Thank you to all that called and emailed the Governor and their represenatives to make this happen!
- Working on the final stages of our Trappers Workshop coming in September which will be FREE to all of our members. This will not be your "stand there and watch" type of demos. This will be class participation and hands on all the way! As a quick note as well...We will be allowing our members to dye and wax all of their traps for free!!! Date will follow this week!!
As everyone knows the Trappers Post is the official magazine of the CFHA. This week Bob Noonan, the editor of the Trappers post lost his wife Debbie to complications related to an accident she had in March. Please take a moment to send your condolences to Bob and his family for thier loss.
I wrote an article in this edition of the Packbasket titled "Definition of Family". Often times we take for granted our families, immediate or extended. Bob's loss and the loss of a fellow trapper Dave Ridzon earlier this year only remind me how precious those moments you have and share with your families really are. Take the time to appreciate you loved ones and the bonds you've made though the travels in your life.
