Youth Hunters
The National Capital Chapter supports Youth Hunting Programs
because todays hunting youth are tomorrows  conservationists.

One of these programs is the Generations Deer Hunting
Workshop held every year at the
Occoquan Bay National Wildlife
Refuge in Prince William County, VA.

Occoquan Bay NWR is one of more than 540 national wildlife
refuges and thousands of waterfowl management areas in the
National Wildlife Refuge System administered by the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service.

The National Wildlife Refuge System is a network of lands and
waters managed specifically of the protection of wildlife and its
habitat and represents the most comprehensive wildlife
management program in the world. Twenty miles south of
Washington, D. C., at the confluence of the Potomac and
Occoquan rivers, Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge is an
oasis where migrating birds and busy city residents both seek a
quiet escape from development.  The 642 acre refuge is in  
suburban setting that offered hunters a view of high rise buildings
form their deer stands,

The SCI National Capital Chapter donated a Lifetime Hunting

Generations Deer Hunting Workshop.
