Twenty thousand of your friends, neighbors and fellow outdoor lovers will be heading to Stonewall Resort and State Park this weekend for the National Hunting and Fishing Days. There's no other way to say it, this is a blast, and there really is something for everyone.

If you like to shoot, you can pick up a muzzle loader and give black powder a shot. If popping a .50 caliber isn't for you, how about a 22, or maybe you can give skeet shooting a try with one of these shotguns. This year, you'll even be able to try out a crossbow.

Of course, there are mini-fly fishing lessons, coyote calling and squirrel field-dressing demonstrations. You can also check out a session on field dressing a deer.

After field dressing your animal, you'll want to eat it, of course. There will be wild game cooking demonstrations, too.

You 'll also be able to take a break and do a little golfing, and at the end of the day, Chef Paco will have some good grub at the resort's restaurant.

Don't forget to bring the kids, the Youth Challenge is a great way to get the kids involved. For many, this is the only chance they'll get this year to experience the great outdoors.

No matter what you want to do, you'll find it at this year's National Hunting and Fishing Days. Be sure and look us up...we'd love to hear from you.
