Welcome to The West
Virginia
Trophy
Hunters AssociationSM
The West Virginia Trophy Hunters Association SM
is a non-profit (IRS 501C-4) organization dedicated to the
conservation of wildlife and the preservation of hunting and hunters
rights. We are all avid hunters and fishermen and professionals in
our individual fields of endeavor.
Each year in January we
present the West Virginia Hunting and Fishing Show SM
at the Civic Center in Charleston, West Virginia. All
proceeds except for costs to run the show and club operating
expenses, are donated to programs that promote or protect hunting,
fishing, wildlife, conservation, and related educational activities.
From 1995 through 2005 our donations to
these causes exceeded $184,825.
Another program that we sponsor is our nearly 500
acre Wildlife Study Project in Wirt County. We have raised over
$350,000 for that project. While raising funds is important,
the primary reason for hosting this show is to bring hunters and
fishermen into contact with organizations that can provide them with
goods and services related to these activities. We are all 100%
volunteers. The volunteers from the WVTHASM work for no wage or
monetary gain. All vendors should reserve their booths as soon as
possible, since in 2005 we sold
100% of the booths available
by October.
West Virginia Wildlife Charity AuctionSM
Our
organization makes a request of each show vendor and outfitter, to
donate something to our "charity" auction to help fund various
wildlife and conservation projects in West Virginia and in several
other states. These donations range from ball caps to African
Safaris. Many fishing and hunting outfitters donate trips. The funds
received from these donations in the past have helped fund the Rocky
Mountain Elk Foundation, the NRA, Boy Scouts, the
West Virginia Raptor Rehabilitation
Center, DNR research and wildlife food plots, to give a few
examples. Early donors for 2008 will have
their businesses listed on our website, so you may get months of
extra advertisement by sending your donation early or legally
committing to donate. As always, we provide those that request it a
receipt for the donation. To review the current
donations click Donations Ads .
