2017 PHEASANT FESTIVAL
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!
There will be a registration check in the night before the hunt, October 22, 2016.
Starting Saturday morning, pheasants will be rounded up and released at 30 different private land sites.
The hunt will run from 10 am until 4pm.
A banquet will be held on Saturday night in Consort, AB.
This brings to here--> OCTOBER 21, 2017!
That is when our second annual pheasant festival will be held. In terms of format we will be keeping it mostly the same as last year (full day hunt, 40 roosters per team, teams of 6 hunters and two doghandlers, banquet to follow).
This year the village of Consort will be hosting the banquet. Registration will also take place at a single location in Consort the night before. Hunting locations will still be spread out along the Highway 41 between Consort and Oyen.
Event proceeds will be put towards a spring hen conservation release as well as local community projects in Consort (Pool) and Oyen (Playground).
