As we all know, the importance of keeping youth involved in the outdoors is a high priority for most everyone here at Avery. With this in mind, most of us will jump at the chance to be involved when the opportunity arises to work with the young adults. This year wasn't any different for Avery Pro-Staffers Dan Oberfoell and Jeremy Abbas. A local Ducks Unlimited Chapter was planning their annual Green Wing Days in North Central Iowa and Asked Jeremy to show up and bring some decoys, blinds, Goose Trailer, and other waterfowl products to the event to show to the kids and explain some techniques in water fowling.

With this Jeremy called Avery Pro-Staffer and Echo Calls Pro-Staffer Dan Oberfoell to see if he could also assist by putting on a beginners calling seminar, As Dan has a large impact on youth in his neck of the woods he jumped at the chance. The event ran for 5 hours and included Gun Safety by the local CO, BB gun shooting, Bow and Arrow shooting, Dog training, Duck calling, and the Avery waterfowl display. There was a great turnout for the event with nearly 90 kids, and I think the adults were as intrigued as the kids were.

Along with this Ducks Unlimited Regional Chairman, Regional Director, and State Chairman were on hand for the event, and I think Dan even had the State Chairman working a call by the end of the day. Special thanks to Avery and Echo Calls for their involvement in another successful day for the youth.
Congrats go out to Jeremy and Dan for a fine job supporting the youth, and the future of Waterfowling!
