| WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, encourages outdoorsmen and women to celebrate National Hunting and Fishing Day (NHF Day) this Saturday, September 28, 2024. As the title sponsor and founder of NHF Day, NSSF is proud to support this national celebration of our outdoor heritage.
Since its inception in 1972, NHF Day has been a powerful reminder that hunters and anglers have always led the charge in protecting wildlife and sustaining natural habitats. Through the federal Wildlife Restoration Program, self-imposed fees and taxes, hunters and anglers have contributed more than $57 billion to wildlife protection efforts across the country.
“National Hunting and Fishing Day is a testament to the dedication of outdoorsmen and women in conserving our nation’s wildlife resources,” said Joe Bartozzi, NSSF President and CEO. “We encourage everyone to get involved—whether by taking part in events, mentoring new outdoor enthusiasts, or simply enjoying nature.”
Take the #GuidetoOutside pledge! Submit a photo of you engaging in outdoor activities like hunting, fishing, or shooting to enter our exclusive NHF Day giveaway featuring a custom hat, stickers, and a Bass Pro Shops gift card!
