Be an Outdoor Mentor

The holiday season is a time to enjoy our family and friends, and it’s also a great time to take advantage of the break in our regular work and school routines to spend time in The Natural State’s great outdoors.

The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission has established special deer seasons to take advantage of the Christmas break, and some of the season’s best duck hunting is also happening this time of year. And if you bundle up or pick a mild day, winter fishing may be one of The Natural State’s best-kept secrets.

This holiday season, we encourage you to share your outdoor passion by becoming a hunting or fishing mentor. Whether it’s a family member, a friend or a coworker, introduce someone to the wonders of Arkansas’s woods, fields and waters.

It’s hard to beat the joy of spending time in the great outdoors, but the reward of introducing that feeling to someone new can be an even bigger thrill.
