Jayhawk QUWF

Jayhawk QUWF We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) wildlife organization formed to provide a strong local source of habitat focus on quail and upland wildlife and youth events.

The Jayhawk Chapter of the Quail and Upland Wildlife Federation started in Lawrence, KS in 1985 originally as Quail Unlimited. When the QU organization dissolved in 2008, we joined the Quail and Upland Wildlife Federation (QUWF). Funds raised for our chapter go directly to wildlife conservation in Kansas and youth outdoor activities such as dove hunting and pheasant hunting. Our local chapter in L

awrence, KS promotes wildlife habitat conservation and youth efforts. Specifically, we help fund the Kansas Quail Initiative, the Kansas City Crushers (a youth sporting clay organization), the Hunter Education program, and put on a youth dove hunt and a youth pheasant hunt. Our main fund raising event is the annual banquet usually held in September or October. Our next banquet will be held on Saturday, September 17, 2016.

What a great day for a youth pheasant hunt. It got a little warm in the afternoon, but we had a great time and it was a great success. Congratulations to everyone who made it out and participated. Special thanks to our guides and their dogs and our mentors for helping our young people learn and understand pheasant hunting. Super special thanks to Jon Francis for coordinating the event.  Also another super special thanks to Eckman hunting preserve for hosting this wonderful event.  Mike and Ethan and their crew are very accommodating and help us put on a successful event every year. Check out Eckman Hunting Preserve for your hunting events. We can’t wait to see everyone next year for another youth pheasant hunt.

If you haven’t bought your banquet tickets, we’re getting down to the last minute. Our banquet is this coming Saturday, October 4. Please come out and help us support our youth and conservation efforts. We had a great turnout for our dove hunt event and overwhelming sign up for our October 11 pheasant hunt. We also do a local trap tournament for our surrounding high schools. We’ve also had people apply for our lifetime hunting or fishing license. Come out and see who will be our winners this year. Please come out and help us support these young people. Our contact information is on the flyer below. You can purchase tickets online or the places listed on our flyer. You can also buy tickets at the gate the day of the event.

Our banquet is fast approaching. We need your support so we can continue supporting our youth and our youth events. We have a lot of great live auction, silent auction and bucket raffle items. We will also have several fun games. We will have two awesome puppies this year as well. If you are a business owner this is a great tax write off if you purchase a table for 10 people. This includes dinner for ten, drink tickets and bucket raffle tickets. Contact us for info and ticket purchasing. If you’re an individual who has a large group you can also purchase a table with the same benefits.
