“I’m on the Special Projects Committee for NWTF’s North Central Chapter, based here in Clarksville,” Joe Zoellner said. “We have members throughout the city and county, and we are always open to new members joining. Turkey hunting is a big part of what we do, but NWTF’s mission is to preserve habitat for the wild turkey.

“It’s a nationwide effort. We’re just a small chapter in Tennessee, so we’re excited to be expecting about 300 people tonight. All types of hunters are welcome. The money we raise goes to the national federation and is then distributed across the country to assist with a variety of projects, like habitat restoration.

“Funds raised can be used anywhere, so we request money back from the national fund for local projects. We recently put in a new walking trail and lighting down at Yellow Creek Baptist Church, near the Yellow Creek boat ramp. We have other projects in the works as well. Tonight, we’ll have dinner, a live auction and a silent auction, a general raffle, and lots of games. It’s going to be fun.”
