Youth Waterfowl Hunt - Brookhaven
On Nov. 9, 2019, ECOs Nicholas Nicholas, Rob McCabe, and Kaitlin Grady collaborated with the DEC Hunter Education program to mentor young hunters during Youth Waterfowl Weekend. The ECOs were paired with a junior hunter and set up in a blind on the Carman's River in Southaven County Park. The mentors gave hands-on instruction about waterfowl hunting, firearm safety, and decoy placement. In total, 11 youth hunters participated in the hunt and bagged several ducks for the day.
