Hunting Safety Tips
Some matches, based on interest and age of their Little, may be interested in going hunting together. Below are important considerations that must be followed, if you desire to engage in this type of activity!
The following steps should be taken before engaging in any activity dealing with a firearm, which includes, but is not limited to skeet shooting, gun or bow hunting, and target practice.
1. Discuss the possibility of this activity with the parent FIRST! Their approval must be given before you participate in any activity dealing with firearms.
2. Before engaging in the activity, talk to your Little about the outing and ensure they are of the appropriate maturity to participate in the activity.
3. Let your Support Specialist know of your intention before the activity.
4. Ensure the gun that you are using is not loaded, and any dressing knives are packed away while transporting to the location of your activity. Always make sure the firearm is unloaded while not in use.
5. Make sure your Little is comfortable with the activity, even after you have started.
Other Firearm Reminders
1. Please inform the agency if you own or have a firearm in your household any time during your match.
2. Firearms and ammunition must be inaccessible to a child at all times.
3. The Agency will disclose to the Parent/Guardian ownership or presence of a firearm.
4. We ask Bigs not to carry a concealed weapon while with their Little.
