Local NWTF Affiliations?

[Bucksnort101]

Been considering sending my hard earned cash to the Twin Toms NWTF and was wondering what are the benefits of joining a local NWTF affiliated club as opposed to just joining through the National Organization? Do they generally have monthly meetings or just the annual Banquets?

Local chapters are in place first and formost to host the annual banquets. My chapter (East Metro Full Fans) tries to get together monthly during the whole year just for the commradery. We've all gotten to be good friends and do many other things together. This is what it's all about. Getting to know a group of like minded people and sharing outdoor pursuits.

For instance, just last weekend a group of us got together at a game farm and shot some pheasants. We also do some fishing outings along with many other types of get togethers.

Every chapter will be different. If there is more than one in your area you may want to sit in at a meeting at each one and see where you fit in best. We often have members switching chapters for various reasons so don't feel you're stuck with one by getting involved. There may a better group for you on the other side of town.

Either way it's a great organization to get involved in and you won't regret it.
