This February 26th edition has a long list of “wild events” coming in March and April that offer a variety of opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts. There are outdoor events and indoor sportsman’s shows that feature seminars, exhibits, demonstrations, and contests promising fun and exciting new activities for everyone in the family. And for many sportsmen the much anticipated Spring Gobbler season!! This edition features the special Youth Turkey Hunt Day, April 5. It has been very exciting the last two months to see the growing number of ‘sportsmen families’ attending the outdoor shows around the state and signing up for The Outdoor Report. Seeing the families out there bodes well for the future of our treasured hunting and fishing heritage and traditions. The stories from our readers confirm the results of recent research that shows a majority of sportsmen are mentoring young people and how important it is to get the young kids outdoors—the younger they start, the more likely their participation will continue as adults and then teach their kids. Trout Heritage Day is also April 5. If you don’t have a youngster to take spring gobbler hunting, or trout fishing—find one! Start your own ‘family tradition.’ Here’s an idea—go turkey hunting in the morning, then go trout fishin’ in the afternoon!! Make it a family tradition full of treasured memories… David Coffman, Editor
