MISSION
STATEMENT:
North Carolina Handicapped
Sportsmen, Inc. (NCHS) is a nonprofit organization of handicapped and able
bodied individuals. Its purpose is to promote friendship, fellowship,
mutual understanding and cooperation among handicapped people and able
bodied associates by encouraging them to participate in outdoor
recreation.
Special events will be scheduled, organized and conducted by both
handicapped and able bodied members of this organization. NCHS will work
closely with the North Carolina Wildlife Recourses Commission (NCWRC) and
other interested organizations to promote and support these special
events. Events will include but are not limited to special hunting,
fishing and shooting events.
While social and recreational activities centered on these sporting events
are encouraged, we do not claim in any way to provide a professional level
of medical or rehabilitative care to the participants. Participants will
be required to sign a waiver of liability for any events sponsored by NCHS.
To further our cause, NCHS will work closely with the NCWRC and other
governing bodies to ensure that new facilities meet ADA standards and
existing facilities be made as accessible as possible.
There are many individuals whose quality of life can be enriched by our
organization. NCHS will reach out to individuals via website, special
events, outdoor expos and appropriate media coverage. New membership is
encouraged to ensure the continuing productivity of our organization and
help further our ability to promote outdoor recreation for handicapped
individuals in North Carolina.
For more information about membership and for those who wish to make a
donation in the form of cash or prizes, please contact the North Carolina
Handicapped Sportsmen.
