Hunting and Fishing Day Gains National Observance
Since 1938 sportsmen have invested $650 million in wildlife nationwide. President Nixon and all 50 governors designate September 22 as Hunting and Fishing Day, now observed on the fourth Saturday each September. Last year more than four million participated, with clubs and scouts hosting exhibits, safety courses, and outdoor instruction. The movement highlights wildlife conservation funded by excise taxes on gear and the expansive habitat purchases that benefit many species.
