Woolrich to Sponsor National Hunting & Fishing Day





SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- Woolrich, a perennial supporter of National Hunting and Fishing Day, has again come aboard as a major sponsor of the annual commemoration set for Sept. 27.

At the urging of the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), Congress formalized the day in 1972 to acknowledge the conservation achievements of hunters and anglers.

The new sponsorship from Woolrich provides vital support for Wonders of Wildlife museum, the official home and national organizer of National Hunting and Fishing Day. The Springfield, Mo., facility is the only hunting- and fishing-focused museum that's both affiliated with the Smithsonian Institution and accredited by the American Zoo and Aquarium Association.

"Woolrich is proud to once again be associated with this celebration of conservation through hunting and fishing," said Tim Joseph, Woolrich director of marketing and media. "As a company with a rich heritage in the outdoors, Woolrich applauds the efforts of those who support the recreation and conservation that come from hunting and fishing."

Wonders of Wildlife also receives major sponsorship from NSSF, Bass Pro Shops, The Sportsman Channel, National Wild Turkey Federation, Realtree and Cabela's.

"Woolrich's generosity will help us continue to offer free tools and promotional items for National Hunting and Fishing Day event planners, and renew our special campaign to encourage more nationwide media coverage of hunting, fishing and conservation," said Denise Wagner, event coordinator for Wonders of Wildlife.

Today, through fees and excise taxes, over 34 million hunters and anglers generate $100,000 every 30 minutes for fish, wildlife and habitat programs.
