MUCC Commissions Five Firearms to Celebrate 85th Anniversary

lschultz • June 13, 2022

In honor of MUCC’s 85th anniversary, we have commissioned a series of firearms. We will be raffling each firearm separately throughout the year. In partnership with Centershot Gun Range, we have custom-designed five Henry Big Boy .44 Mag rifles. They are customized to commemorate the 85 years MUCC has been protecting hunting, fishing and trapping in Michigan.

These five guns will be raffled to raise funds to continue our work in Lansing to protect hunting fishing and trapping, to continue to educate youth and implement habitat improvement projects throughout the state.

There will be multiple chances to get into the raffles. Each gun is marked 1 of 5 and will be raffled at different times throughout the year. The first chance to win will be held at MUCC’s annual convention. Tickets will be sold on Friday and Saturday during our convention weekend. Tickets will be $20 each.

If you are unable to make it to the convention, there will be a chance to purchase tickets for the remaining four guns at other MUCC events throughout the year including the Detroit Fishing show, Outdoorama and the Ultimate Sportshow Grand Rapids.

We would like to thank Centershot Gun Range for creating these beautiful firearms and are looking forward to using the money raised to continue to protect hunting, fishing and trapping for future generations in Michigan.

MUCC celebrates a successful Clinton River Cleanup

Rochester Hills, MI — On the Ground, MUCC’s volunteer stewardship program, celebrated its 250th habitat improvement project in Oakland County this past weekend. In partnership with Metro-West Steelheaders and the Clinton River Watershed Council , 62 volunteers removed more than 460 pounds of trash from the Clinton River watershed and surrounding areas, restoring more than 80 acres of fish and wildlife habitat. Volunteers focused on picking up trash and other debris in the river near Yates Park and along various walking trails near the Yates Cider Mill. Many different items were collected, including a couple of tires, fishing line, old cans, a sign, and even a car bumper. “We definitely wanted to clean up as much trash as possible because that's going to help the watershed as a whole, and it’s going to clean up the river for both humans aesthetically, and also the animals that live in it, and create safer drinking water” said Olivia Triltsch, MUCC’s Habitat Program and Partnerships Coordinator.
