High Country Chapter
RMEF believes everyone should have the opportunity to learn how to hunt, fish,
shoot a bow, and learn other outdoor skills. Case in point: for nine years
running, RMEF North Carolina Chapters have co-sponsored the Talking Trees
Children’s Trout Derby in Cherokee. Dozens of RMEF volunteers have turned
out for the event to make sure every participant enjoys the day. In 2011,
more than 1,900 kids along with their parents and guardians took part in the
event.

BANQUET!
If you’re all about wildlife and wild places, you’ll love what the Elk Foundation
has accomplished in North Carolina. Local banquets provide the majority of Elk
Foundation conservation dollars, which RMEF is able to leverage by a lofty 9
to 1 ratio through matching partner funds. RMEF North Carolina chapters helped
fund an experimental program to reintroduce elk to the Great Smoky Mountains
National Park’s Cataloochee Valley starting in 2001. The Park is now transitioning
to a long-term elk management program. RMEF North Carolina chapters also fund
and help orchestrate hunting heritage and conservation activities
that introduce young people and women to the outdoors, promote hunter safety
and responsibility, provide physically challenged individuals with a hunting
experience, and involve youth in conservation including: S.A.F.E. (Shooting
Access for Everyone) events, 4-H Shooting Sports, Becoming an Outdoors-Woman,
and National Archery in the Schools programs. All told, the Elk Foundation and
our partners have completed 40 projects in North Carolina with a combined value
of more than $2.1 million.
The Rocky
Mountain Elk Foundation now has upwards of 180,000 members and growing. RMEF
is awfully proud of the more than 632,000 acres of previously off-limits land
it’s opened to public hunting, and prouder still of the six million acres of
great elk country people like you have helped conserve. But 180,000 members
is barely 10 percent of the active elk hunters in North America. Imagine what
we could accomplish with 300,000 or even half-a-million members? Help us get
there by inviting a friend to have a good time for a great cause.
Yours in Conservation,
Larry Dulaney
