(updated 19th July)
Due to the continued COVID disruptions and the Health Departments necessary guidelines, the LPAF&G Club reluctantly decided that due to the restrictions on the number of people allowed to gather together and due to the uncertainties as to what the rest of 2021 will hold, the LPAF&G Club will unfortunately NOT be holding any club meetings for the foreseeable future. Please stay safe.
We look forward to holding a yard sale swap again when this COVID situation calms down and it is safe once again to do so.
Judging by the number of positive comments from hunters it certainly looks like the 2020 Norfolk County Pheasant release was a hit and a success. The Club would like to express its appreciation to all those who bought a Pheasant licence and for the positive comments given to our members and/or left on our facebook page. The total number of licenses purchased has exceeded the total for last year. Success as always varied by hunter but there were still Pheasants being seen and harvested in the final week of the season. We are already looking forward to continuing the program based on the excellent response from the 2020 pheasant release.
Stay tuned for details of the 2021 season.
