Squirrel Hunt Benefiting State Veterans | News, Sports, Jobs


The Wallis Run Rod & Gun Club, Trout Run, will be holding a squirrel hunt this weekend to raise money for the Wounded Warriors of Pennsylvania.

The event, scheduled for Saturday, February 26, will include two-person teams.

Heath Heller, a member of the club’s fundraising committee, expects about 95 hunters to participate.

He said the event is for a good cause and a fun day out for everyone.

“The camaraderie and camaraderie is like nothing else,” he said.

Hunters must be licensed and follow Pennsylvania state game rules.

The hunt is from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

“We’re doing a pig roast, so we’ll have a meal for them later.” Heller said.

The hunt, he said, has drawn more hunters since it began a few years ago.

Registration is set for 7:30 am

The event will include raffles and live music.

Wallis Run Rod & Gun Club is supporting the Pennsylvania Wounded Warriors by raising funds that can be used to help veterans of the state in crisis, as well as wounded warriors and their families.
