UPCOMING EVENTS

Hunters built this country's conservation movement. We're here to carry it forward.

Since our founding, this chapter has stood for four things. First, fellowship among those who love the outdoors. Second, the conservation of wildlife and the habitat that supports it. Third, the sharing of hard-won hunting experience between generations. Finally, an unflinching commitment to the ethics that separate sportsmen from everyone else.

We’re not a club that meets once a year and writes a check. Instead, we fund youth programs, sponsor scholarships, support veterans and run Sensory Safaris for visually impaired participants. We also partner with state and federal agencies on the ground. As a Safari Club International chapter, our work is local. The mission, however, is global.

Where Your Membership Goes to Work

Educating Tomorrow's Hunters

We fund the American Wilderness Leadership School, the Millcreek Marksmen 4-H Club, and teacher development programs that put hunting and conservation back in the classroom.

Protecting Wildlife and Habitat

Through SCI's Matching Grants program, our donations are multiplied — supporting state game agencies, school habitat projects, and species recovery efforts across our region.

Bringing the Hunt to Everyone

Hands-on mounts and skins let visually impaired participants experience the texture, scale, and story of big game animals from around the world.

Serving Veterans and Our Community

Safari Blue Bags, VA fishing outings, Soldiers & Sailors missions, and youth event days — practical support for the people who need it, delivered by the people who hunt alongside them.

From the Field

Hunt Spotlights is where members share their hunts, from Ohio whitetail to Cape buffalo. The board reviews every story before it goes up. Got one worth telling? Send it in.

Join the chapter. Strengthen the fight.

SCI membership isn’t a sticker for the truck window. It’s a stake in the future of hunting, here and around the world. Join SCI through our chapter and you get a vote in chapter direction, a seat at meetings and outings, and a place to share your hunts on Hunt Spotlights. Your SCI membership funds the legal fight for hunting, and the chapter part is free.

One chapter. One mission. Every hunter matters.
