When I returned from Safari Club International convention, LG asked what the best thing was. I went to a lot of meetings. That probably wouldn’t be her “favorite”. I saw a lot of people with a variety of hunts. She would love to go on some of them. She would have liked some of the amazing guns, gear and furs, but I’m know she would have loved all the taxidermy.
Safari Club International (SCI)
“SCI is a tremendous advocate for sportsmen, wildlife conservation and hunters’ rights. Their work is essential to preserving our outdoor heritage.” –U.S. Congressman John D. Dingell, D-MI
“SCI is probably the most influential conservation group now in Washington, D.C.” –U.S. Congressman Don Young, R-AK
SCI is the only pro-hunting organization with an office in Washington, D.C., that has full time policy experts, in-house legal counsel, and certified wildlife biologists on staff dedicated to the protection of hunting for SCI members and hunters everywhere.
SCI monitors, evaluates, and lobbies on federal legislation impacting hunting, hunters, and wildlife conservation. SCI evaluates hunting opportunities, access, recruitment, and retention. One of the ways to protect hunting freedoms is to keep on top of the legislation in Congress. Building relationships between Congressional leaders and sportsmen as well as staying current on the issues ensures that hunting interests are at the fore when important bills come up.
