Hey guys,
It is that time again. Time to mark Saturday March 5th on your calendar. That is when the 9th anual Arizona Hunters Who Care Trash Pickup Day will be held. In case you dont know what this about, Arizona Hunters Who Care is the fastest growing grass roots hunting orginization in the state. We strive to give back to the sport that has given us so much.
Our Trash Pickup Day will be held on March 5th, at the intersection of Hwy 286 and Arivaca Road (unit 36). Everything will be provided, gloves, trash bags, and lunch. All you need to do is show up and work for however long you can. The event will kick off at 8:00am and lunch will be from 12:00 to 1:00.
If any of you are wondering, will cleaning up units 36a 36b and 36c. All of these units and the wildlife that use them have been devistated by the illegal allien traffic. Areas that used to be prime Mule deer, whitetail, Javalina and quail habitat, now have trash that sometimes is 2 feet deep. And hunters are the only one willing to make a difference. Last year our spring cleanup day had 128 people and our fall cleanup day had 180 people. We have made a big difference. Many of the ranchers whose property is trashed, have promised to keep their land open for hunting access, because of the good work hunters have done for them.
This will be a great event to meet other hunters, G&F unit managers, Border patrol officers, and officials from the Buenos Aires Wildlife Refuge. Come on down and bring the whole family. Teach you kids about giving back to the wildlife that has giving us so much.
If any of you are willing or able to help in set up or donations, please call my self at 955-4090 or Gabe Paz in the Tucson G&F office.
thanks for your help,
