Cypress, CA (1/20/2011)
- Yamaha Outdoors is pleased to announce the
winner of its third annual Yamaha-National Hunting
and Fishing (NHF) Day ATV sweepstakes. Determined
by random drawing, Yamaha congratulates Natalie
Uribe-De Freitas from Santa Clara, Calif., who
has won a new 2011 Yamaha Grizzly 450 ATV with
Electric Power Steering (EPS) valued at $7,499.
NHF Day was formalized by Congress as a public
reminder that hunters, anglers and shooters
are America's premier conservation supporters
who generate $100,000 every 30 minutes for fish,
wildlife and habitat programs. Scheduled annually
on the fourth Saturday of September, the 2010
celebration of hunting, fishing and conservation
took place on September 25 - with 120 registered
events held in more than 40 states. The events
provided an opportunity to share the NHF Day
message, introduce new participants to outdoor
recreational activities, and demonstrate the
positive impact these activities have on conservation
efforts.
"Yamaha is proud to continue its support
of outdoor recreation and to help spread the
National Hunting and Fishing Day message,"
said Steve Nessl, marketing manager for Yamaha's
ATV/SxS group. "Congratulations to Ms.
Freitas. We hope she will enjoy the new Grizzly
450 EPS in the field very soon."
"I want to thank Yamaha for this incredible
win and for sponsoring the National Hunting
and Fishing Day Sweepstakes," says Natalie
Uribe-De Freitas, recipient of the 2011 Grizzly
450 EPS. "My family and I are really looking
forward to our very own ATV."
Yamaha, through its relationships with organizations
such as Ducks Unlimited, Safari Club International,
Buckmasters, National Wild Turkey Federation,
Outdoor Life's Safe a Stream program and NHF
Day, is a sustaining supporter of conservation
efforts for outdoor recreational enthusiasts.
In addition to sponsoring outdoors conservation
groups, Yamaha launched its OHV
Access Initiative in January of 2008, and
has since approved more than $1.5 million in
GRANTs across the country supporting its mission
of safe, responsible riding and open, sustainable
trails.
