Fish and Game rule would create special hunting weekend for active military, veterans • New Hampshire Bulletin

A new Fish and Game Department rule would create a special waterfowl hunting weekend for active military members and veterans.

This reserved hunting time would take place the first weekend after the close of the regular hunting season in all zones. Hunters would have to carry proof of their status as an active-duty member or veteran.

The weekend would be for hunting migratory waterfowl, such as ducks. Hunters would still have to carry their state hunting license, their migratory waterfowl license, a National Migratory Bird Harvest Information Program permit, and a federal duck stamp.

Though only veterans or active-duty military could harvest waterfowl at this time, they would be allowed one guest. Those assisting with “setting out decoys, calling, or retrieving harvest birds” would have to possess a hunting license and the necessary permits, the proposed rule says.

Regular-season bag and possession limits would still apply.

Fish and Game will host a public hearing on the proposed rule on Tuesday, July 9, at 12:30 p.m. at Fish and Game Headquarters in Concord. The public may also submit feedback via email to [email protected] until July 16.

“Thanks to these caring community partners, we are excited to once again host three free summer camp opportunities that will run in the Seacoast region,” Carrie Penna, executive director and lead program facilitator. “The camps offer young girls an opportunity to participate in expressive arts, yoga and fun — all while making new friends and learning new skills.”

“We are proud to support Soul Models and all the important work they are doing to provide safe and engaging opportunities for youth in our community to learn, have fun and gain self-confidence,” Angela Salb, MVSB Vice President, commercial lending team leader, said.

The Drew Cepp Scholarship Fund was created in memory of Drew Ceppetelli, a young woman from Barrington who was killed in a car accident in November of 2022.
