Veterans preference hunts at managed waterfowl hunt areas on Veterans Day
Veterans preference drawings at Michigan’s Wetland Wonders will take place Nov. 11 for properly licensed resident active-duty U.S. military personnel and veterans.
Hunts will occur at Fish Point State Wildlife Area in Tuscola County, the Harsens Island Unit of the St. Clair Flats State Wildlife Area in St. Clair County, Muskegon County Wastewater, Nayanquing Point State Wildlife Area in Bay County, Pointe Mouillee State Game Area in Monroe and Wayne counties, Shiawassee River State Game Area in Saginaw County and Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge in Saginaw County.
The following documentation, along with a valid Michigan driver’s license or voter registration card, will be accepted as proof of status: military ID, leave papers, duty papers, military orders, copy of DD Form 214, enhanced driver’s license or documentation from the Veterans Administration regarding disability status. If you were discharged from the Army or Air Force National Guard, you may provide a copy of NGB Form 22 or NGB Form 23.
To be eligible for the veterans preference draw, single hunters must be active-duty military personnel or a veteran; party hunters must have at least one member in their party that is active-duty military or a veteran. The daily limits and species restrictions are the same as those allowed in the regular waterfowl hunting season. Participants must also possess a waterfowl license and a federal duck stamp.
Thank you for your service and enjoy your hunt!
