D8: Urgent Update

Hello everyone,

I have been informed that due to Governor Wolf’s recent COVID-19 restrictions, we will not be able to hold the trapping school at Shippensburg Fish & Game. Our trapping school has a new location, it will be held at Rod Zullinger’s farm, located at 4886 Raccoon Valley Rd, Millerstown PA 17062. Rod’s farm is about halfway between Ickesburg and Millerstown on Route 17 in Perry County. I will be contacting everyone on the instructor list to make sure that they are aware of this change. I am also sending letters out to all the trapping school students to inform them of the new location. My thanks to Rod and Penny for the generous offer to use their place so we can still hold our event. If anyone has any questions or concerns, please contact me.

Thank you,
George

D8: Cancellation

I regret having to announce that our PTA District 8-5th annual Spring Sportsman’s Show on April 4, 2020 has been cancelled. In light of the worsening situation with the Covid-19 virus I felt it was the right thing to do to protect our members, vendors, attendees, and their families. We will be back next year!

My thanks you for your continued support!
