NRA issues Youth Hunter Education Challenge

Missourians through age 18 will compete in regional events testing their knowledge of hunting, wildlife and safety afield.

JEFFERSON CITY-Young Missourians who have completed hunter education training can show what they have learned at regional Youth Hunter Education Challenge (YHEC) events throughout the state in March and April.

Jan Morris, who coordinates Missouri's YHEC program for the National Rifle Association, said regional events will be held March 19 in Kansas City, central and northeastern Missouri, March 26 in Southeastern and northwestern Missouri and April 2 in St. Louis, southwestern Missouri and the Ozarks. Details about regional events are available from Morris at 636/464-6214, JGMorris@aol.com or online at www.moyhec.com.

The competition is open to Missourians through age 18. Participants compete in .22 rifle, shotgun and muzzle-loading rifle marksmanship, wildlife identification, and a hunter safety trail. Regional winners qualify to compete in the state YHEC event, whose winners advance to the national competition. Participation in regional events is free.
