The State of Vermont's Fish & Wildlife Department has announced that Saturday, September 28th is National Fishing & Hunting Day. Show your love of the traditional outdoor sports and our sacred connection to our food by attending our Hunting Film Tour!
Sacred Hunter, a Vermont non-profit, is sponsoring a Hunting Film Tour on Saturday, September 28th, featuring 8 professionally filmed hunts of 10-20 minutes apiece.
There are elk hunts, mountain goat hunts, a 230 class whitetail, ducks & geese, grizzly bear and exotic aoudad and javelina. These are all fair chase hunts, and a few of them are with a bare bow (recurve bow w/no sights). These films celebrate the beauty and wonder of our sport. To view the trailers for these films, go to www.huntingfilmtour.com.
The Film Tour is being sponsored by Sacred Hunter to benefit its mentoring program, Traditions Outdoor Mentoring, which works with at-risk 13-16 year old boys, teaching them the values of conservation and ethics while learning to hunt, fish and forage.
The Film Festival is being held at The Film House at Main Street Landing on 60 Lake Street in Burlington, VT, overlooking Lake Champlain. Doors open at 5:00 pm. We will be offering Fiddlehead beer for adults and sodas for the young people. McKenzie hot dogs and chips will also be available. We will be serving food and selling raffle tickets from 5-6:30. Films will begin at 6:30. There will be an intermission at approximately 7:30, where raffle prizes will be given away and the films will end at approximately 9:00 pm.
We will be raffling off a $1,000 pair of Zeiss binoculars, a 4x32 Zeiss Conquest rifle scope, a SOG Knives, a Yeti Cooler and many other wonderful prizes. Everyone who purchases a ticket will receive one free bagel with cream cheese from the Burlington Bagel Bakery on Shelburne Road in So. Burlington. There will also be raffles for grab bags filled with hats, gloves, and hunting apparel.
Tickets are limited to 200 seats and cost $16 at the door or online, and $15 through our distributors, Dattilio’s Guns & Tackle on Shelburne Road in So. Burlington, Powderhorn Sports in Williston and Big River Bait & Tackle in Hinesburg.
