Cypress, CA (12/2/2009) -
Yamaha Outdoors continues to support National
Hunting and Fishing Day (NHF Day) and is pleased
to announce the winner of the 2009 Yamaha-NHF
Day sweepstakes. Determined by random drawing,
Yamaha congratulates Richard Letissier from
Dallas who has won a new 2009 Yamaha Grizzly
550 FI ATV with Electric Power Steering (EPS).
Yamaha, through its relationships with organizations
such as Ducks Unlimited, Safari Club International,
Buckmasters, National Wild Turkey Federation
and NHF Day, is a continued supporter of conservation
efforts for outdoor recreational enthusiasts.
During its second year partnering with NHF Day,
Yamaha was able to help make the 2009 celebration
a great success – with registered events
taking place across more than 40 states.
“Conservation efforts for hunting, fishing
and other recreational activities are very important
to Yamaha, and through our partnerships with
awareness programs such as NHF Day we can expand
our own efforts to support safe, responsible
enjoyment of these activities,” said Steve
Nessl, marketing manager for Yamaha’s
ATV/SxS group. “Congratulations to Mr.
Letissier, and we hope he enjoys his new Yamaha
Grizzly 550 ATV with electric power steering
and the most off-road capability in its class
– a perfect ATV for outdoorsmen.”
Scheduled annually on the fourth Saturday of
September, this year’s celebration of
hunting, fishing and conservation took place
on September 26, 2009. 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. The annual events provide an opportunity
to share that message and introduce new participants
to outdoor recreational activities while showing
the nation what a positive impact these activities
have on conservation efforts.
In addition to sponsoring outdoors conservation
groups, Yamaha launched its OHV Access Initiative
in January of 2008, and has since approved more
than $1 million in GRANTs across the country
supporting its mission of safe, responsible
riding and open, sustainable trails. Through
its partnership with Outdoor Life’s Save
a Stream program, Yamaha is helping promote
this responsible message to all outdoorsmen
and women.
