National Capital Chapter Members -

Join us for the February Member Meeting on

February 17 at 7 PM and meet 2 great Outfitters!

The meeting will be at the NRA building at

11250 Waples Mill Rd. Fairfax, Va. 22030.

Tom Long from Long's Outfitters in Luray, VA will be on hand to talk about local hunting opportunities (deer, bear,
turkey) with his Outfitting and Guide Service.  Tom has been a long time supporter of NCC-SCI and a long time
member as well.  Many members have had successful hunts with him.  Come meet Tom to hear more about local
hunting that is an easy drive from our area.  Also see his web site for more details.

Theron Conradie of GIX Africa Safaris will also be at the member meeting to discuss his Safari company in South
Africa.  Many members have hunted with him in the past.  Come and meet him and ask him any questions you may
have about his Safari outfit. Theron is the 3rd generation of a family involved in hunting and conservation. He is a
registered member of both PHASA (Professional Hunter’s Association of Southern Africa) and SCI. Theron has
more than 20 years of hunting experience in the region and registered as a professional hunter in 2002.

Apart from hunting he has also gained more than 5 years of valuable experience acting as a tour and field guide in
Southern and Eastern Africa. All of this provides him with an intimate knowledge of the fauna and flora of the
region, exceptional people skills and an unwavering love for nature and the great outdoors.

Southern Africa is one of richest game areas in the world. Hunting opportunities are numerous and provide the
ideal environment for you to create your own tailor made safari. Apart from exceptional hunting, the region is also
an excellent holiday destination. Any combination is possible. GIX Africa Safaris has existing packages to offer
and select from. Alternatively, they can assist you to create your own tailor made safari, always ensuring
affordability and great value for money without compromising quality. Additional daily excursions can be arranged.


All members and potential members are welcome to join us at these meetings.  Bring your children and spouses too.
