COVINGTON – Individuals from across the state gathered at the Georgia Wildlife Federation’s Alcovy Conservation Center recently to discuss strategies to increase and diversify participation in hunting, angling and target shooting – an effort known as R3. Fifty-five individuals representing 25 different organizations gathered for the 2023 R3 Summit hosted by the Georgia R3 Initiative.
Most initiative partners have the goal of maintaining the federation’s conservation funding system, which depends on these activities. The annual meeting was attended by professionals and volunteers who were updated on participation trends, introduced to existing programming, and encouraged to develop partnerships.
