For tire dealers and other retailers outfitting ATVs and Side-by-Sides, Yamaha is marking Saturday’s National Hunting and Fishing Day by promoting a giveaway contest featuring a 2009 Grizzly 550 FI ATV with Electric Power Steering. The prize vehicle is valued at $8,199.
The sweepstakes runs from Sept. 26 through Oct. 31.
“Yamaha is in the outdoors year round, but National Hunting & Fishing Day gives us a special opportunity to show our support for outdoorsmen and women across the country,” says Steve Nessl, marketing manager for Yamaha’s ATV/SxS division.
Scheduled annually on the fourth Saturday of September, National Hunting & Fishing Day “serves as the most effective grass roots effort ever taken to promote outdoor sports and conservation,” according to Nessl. Public commemorations of hunting, fishing and conservation are being planned nationwide.
Other sponsors of the day’s festivities include the Wonders of Wildlife museum in Springfield, Mo.; the National Shooting Sports Foundation; Bass Pro Shops; the Sportsman Channel; Realtree; GunBroker.com; the Hunting Heritage Trust; Cabela’s; the Boone and Crockett Club; Smith & Wesson; Field & Stream/Outdoor Life; Woolrich; and the Pope and Young Club.
Yamaha’s contest is open to outdoor recreational sports participants aged 18 or older. The winner will be determined by a random drawing. Rules and entry information is available at www.yamahaoutdoors.com/nhfday.
