Junior Big Game Hunting Weekend Set Again for Columbus Holiday
In 2012, New York’s first Youth Firearms Deer Hunt was held on Columbus Day weekend. This has since become an annual event, thanks in part to legislation that passed in 2008 to expand big game hunting for junior hunters, those who are 14-15 years old. The annual event is set to take place on Columbus Day weekend again this year, October 12-14, and is organized by the State Department of Environmental Conservation.
