The Fort Riley Outdoorsmen Group, or FROG, hosts the annual youth mentorship
spring turkey hunt April 1 and 2.
Experienced hunters from FROG will guide youth ages 9 to 15, who are
disabled, first-time hunters, or whose sponsor is deployed. The event is
designed to give youth hunters an opportunity to hunt, improve skills and
learn more about the great outdoors. Guides will mentor youth by teaching
safety and ethics and assisting in cleaning turkeys at the end of the hunt.
The deadline to register for the event is March 24. For more information, or
to sign up, email fortrileyoutdoorsmengroup@
Those registered must have a Unit 3 turkey permit and attend an orientation
March 31 to learn about hunting turkeys, what to bring and wear, and tips
about firing a shotgun.
