Ohio Pheasant and Quail Hunting: $1MM Spent on Habitat and Youth Events
OH's Pheasants Forever (PF) and Quail Forever (QF) chapters have spent $1,066,731 on the two organizations' wildlife habitat mission in 2008. Last year some 949 habitat projects were conducted impacting 6,001 acres. The work included planting 18,685 trees and shrubs for winter cover. This is great news for OH pheasant and quail hunting. For youth activities the orgs engaged 1,224 youth hunters in mentor hunts, 487 youth in target shooting, 194 in conservation camp and 2,563 in other related outdoor events. They also issued $1,510 in sponsoring educational workshops and offered 18 scholarships at $4,550. Another feather in the PF and QF's hat was the donation of a 90-acre property in Union County, becoming the second property in the nation donated to PF/QF's Forever Land Trust.
