What We Do

• We are dedicated to the wise use and management of quail and upland game and other wildlife habitat management.
• We promote conservation, preservation, management, habitat development and other activities relating to the various species of quail, dove, upland birds, and upland wildlife species in the local, regional and national habitat landscapes.

Fund Raisers

We raise funds through grants, banquets, raffles, youth events, shooting events, dinners, auctions and other activities in order to assist federal agencies, state fish and game agency; wildlife, agricultural, extension and research units; colleges, universities, youth projects, and other qualified organizations to conduct and promote wildlife habitat development and management, and other meaningful programs for the conservation, enhancement, and propagation of wild quail and upland wildlife.

 Habitat Outreach

• We contribute to the welfare of upland wildlife populations and their habitat and in so doing provide benefits to many other forms of wildlife in their local area through Chapter projects.
• We promote best conservation interests of conservationist / hunter / landowner relationships, good sportsmanship, and preserve the best conservation traditions of hunting being good stewards of the land.
