We are selling tickets on a beautiful homemade sculpture by local artist John Neville. Tickets are $1 each and the draw date moved to August 17th

Sending a friendly reminder to all boaters; the boat launch at the dock is owned by Labrador Hunting and Fishing Association and it is for MEMBERS ONLY! If you do not have a membership you can buy one for $40 at the boat launch in the afternoons or on here on our website and a membership will be mailed to you. You can also message Alexandra Cabot , Alisha Barney or Courtney Wheeler on Facebook if you have any questions or concerns. Just to clarify we encourage you to park in the designated parking area as larger trucks with large boats in tow need more room to move around please respect other members while using the boat launch. Thanks and have a great summer! :)

On Thursday April 23rd I spoke by video conference to the DFO ministerial advisory committee on Atlantic Salmon about our association and about some points relating to salmon around Lake Melville. I was the first presenter for the province. The following is what I presented.

The Labrador Hunting and Fishing Association Inc. (LHAFA) is a Not-For-Profit nongovernmental organization that provides a unified, single, strong regional voice to represent outdoor enthusiasts across Labrador on issues...

The LHAFA would like to congratulate Scott Russell, from North West River, Labrador, on winning the Boat and Motor Package drawn at the LHAFA 4th Annual Steak and Lobster Dinner on the 5th June 2015, at the Royal Canadian Legion. A very big thank you to all of those who bought tickets.

Snowmobilers please be aware of two 40 foot boats that are left in Terrington Basin to freeze in for the winter and currently there are no reflectors marking either. One is just at the North end of the main dock and the other is just south of the old condemned middle dock. These may be difficult to see in stormy weather if your traveling on the basin.

New memberships cards are now available to purchase from Notre Dame Agencies, Frenchies or one of the Executive or Directors.

The Labrador Hunting and Fishing Assoc visited Peacock Primary in Goose Bay on May 1st 2014 to promote boating and the use of life jackets as part of transport canadas safe boating initiative. Directors Ashley Taylor, Hector Lethbridge, Joe Cabot and Hollis Yetman along with PUTKA the Boat safety mascot talked about boating and lifejackets and handed out more than 300 ice cream. It was a fun event for sure.
