The Adirondack-Catskill Chapter of Safari Club International, established in 1996, supports SCI’s mission to defend your freedom to hunt and fish while promoting wildlife conservation worldwide. Our chapter activities enable members to share their hunting experiences, provide support to hunters with disabilities, and encourage youth to enjoy the outdoors, participate in the shooting sports, and get involved with conservation efforts.

Join us today to help ensure all hunters, the game we pursue, and wild places that animals call home have a bright future.
