The Chattanooga Chapter was recognized for its contributions last year by the national Ducks Unlimited organization. Nearly every sporting organization in the country has copied the fundraising blueprint designed by Ducks Unlimited years ago. However few have matched it.

Organizers are looking for additional committee members, venders and sponsors to help put together another premier event. If you care about wildlife conservation and would like to volunteer to help, be a sponsor, or buy tickets, please e-mail Cameron Mitchell Committee Chairman.

    Vendors are anyone with donated items towards our chapter and DU. These would include services provided, including retail items, guided trips, taxidermy etc. For the use/set-up of a booth at our events there is a minimal donation of $200.00 retail value. According to the total value of the items, a person may also receive web space advertising, dinner tickets, a DU Decoy and recognition at the event.
