Created as a tribute to National Hunting and Fishing Day, this annual festival is a terrific opportunity for all ages to try their hand at a variety of outdoor pursuits, including skeet shooting, waterfowl identification, axe/knife throwing, turkey calling, archery, 3-D laser big game hunting, crossbow, BB gun, fly fishing, jig tying, canoeing, muzzle loading, Conservation Officers, Forest Rangers and Smokey Bear, woodsmen demonstrations, local wildlife artists and authors and trout fishing.

Activities are specially designed to give even children a chance to try these sports -- perhaps for the first time. Sportsmen's Days at Carpenters Brook is one of the largest celebrations of National Hunting and Fishing Day in New York State with family attendance expected at well over 6,000. The day of the event admission is just $5.00 per family (car) and covers all hands-on activities.


The event will be family focused - giving everyone – even children a chance to experience outdoor sports.
