2012 Eagles' Wings Continental Pheasant Shoot
EAGLES' WINGS, INC.
Educational Outreach Conference
Friday, February 3, 2012
Does a crisp winter day of outdoor sport with colleagues and friends at a destination location sound appealing? If so, join Eagles' Wings, Inc., at Westervelt Lodge in Aliceville, Alabama, for a continental pheasant shoot on February 3, 2012.
Proceeds from this event go directly to Eagles' Wings, Inc., a non-profit organization that provides day habilitation services for adults with mild, moderate and severe intellectual and physical disabilities, including those who are medically fragile. Eagles' Wings strives to provide a wide array of services to meet their spiritual, physical, emotional, social and vocational needs. Their primary objective is centered on happiness for each individual in a respectful, secure, nurturing and structured environment which maximizes potential for independence, productivity and integration with the surrounding community.
Continental pheasant shoots are modeled after European driven-style pheasant shoots, with barrel-melting action. Hunters are stationed in 10 blinds surrounding a hidden tower. Three hundred birds are flighted as single or doubles through the shooters, and blinds are rotated every 15 shots. Trained Labrador Retrievers collect every downed bird.
This event will consist of two 20-gun shoots: one morning session and one afternoon. Refreshments are provided during the shoot, and Westervelt Lodge's famous fried chicken lunch will be served between the morning and afternoon sessions.
Participation is limited to 40 shooters. Early registration is recommended. Registration is $325 and includes participation in one 300-bird shoot, refreshments, lunch, door prizes, and cleaned and packaged birds to take home for the grill.
Morning Shoot 8:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
Lunch (both hunts) 11:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
Afternoon Shoot 1:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
