youth associations?

I was looking into if Alabama had a youth association. I don't think "we" do.

I think some states have Youth associations. If they do, how do they work? Do they sponsor the youth hunts, have raffles for scholarships...?

I'm just curious b/c I don't think we have one and I would like some information on starting one, Thanks in Advance.

Ohio doesn't have a youth association. The Ohio Sportsmen & Sporting Dog Association sponsors the Ohio Youth Hunt & Show. I think that is the way most states do it, not sure.

Yeah, usually around here a Club hosts it with the help of the State Association. I was just thinking it would be nice to start a youth accociation, to be just for the kids. I am not for sure though that we would have turn out of kids though, b/c their parents would have to take them and such.
