This is a two-part program to be held October 17th and November 7th.
The instructional day for new participants will take place at Peconic River Sportsman’s Club on October 17th, participants will then have the option to hunt in Hubbard County Park, Flanders or Southaven County Park, Yaphank on November 7th (Note that park options for the youth hunt are subject to change depending on the number of participants).
