The University of Minnesota Crookston received approximately thirty-thousand dollars in grant money from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources for angler and hunter recruitment, retention and reactivation (R3) training. This workshop aims to address concerns over declines in hunting and angling participation. UMN Crookston’s Outreach and Engagement will partner with the Crookston Gun Club and the UMN Crookston Trap Shooting Club to recruit, deliver and educate audiences in northwest Minnesota.
