Backcountry Hunters & Anglers Club
Who are we?
19WBHA is a club that provides a community for those interested in outdoor pursuits and meeting for social events with like-minded people. Our aim is to be a point of contact to help people get involved but have know idea where to start, or those that are new to the area and wanting to learn the rules and regulations, as well as getting the 19 Wing community involved in conservation.
We provide intro classes to learn about fishing, hunting, and shellfish harvesting.
Backcountry Hunters & Anglers (BHA) seeks to ensure North America's outdoor heritage of hunting and fishing in a natural setting, through education and work on behalf of wild public lands, waters, and wildlife.
