Hunting Committee meeting Sept 20
There will be a meeting this Sunday, Sept 20, at NSSA, at 2 PM open to any member interested in creating/joining a hunting committee.
The purpose of the meeting is to gage interest from the hunters for a committee, discuss a list of what the committee would aim to do, choose a person to act as chairman (subject to the president’s approval), and discuss the land trust’s proposal for the 88 acres on our border.
If you are interested in being part of this, just show up at 2 o’clock and help out. We’ll meet in the meeting room.

NSSA considering Hunting committee
NSSA is exploring the idea of creating a hunting committee. For example, this committee will be responsible for the following:
- Setting policy for members to hunt on our property and other lands
- Enhance hunting by creating new opportunities to hunt
- Manage our property to maximize hunting opportunities
- Raise funds to carry our these new enhancements
These are just some of the possible goals of the new committee. What we are looking for are committed members willing to lead this effort, take charge and see it through.
To get a feel for members’ interest, we need some feedback. Please email Stan Hoover at rifle@northsidesportsmen.com with your thoughts, comments, etc. From the responses, we will proceed and decide what the next course of action will be.
Thanks on behalf of the Officers and Board of Directors
