LINCOLN (AP) — The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission is accepting donations of new and used hunting gear and clothing.
The donations will go to the commission's mentored youth hunting program. Organizers say many youths who participate don't have access to appropriate clothing and gear. The commission is requesting camouflaged and blaze orange hunting gear.
The commission says it will accept insulated bibs, parkas and insulated coats, hooded sweatshirts, insulated boots, shooting sticks, game calls, gloves, facemasks and new wool socks, among other items. Donate items should be clean and in good, working condition.
Game and Parks cannot accept tree stands, safety harnesses, firearms or ammunition.
Donations can be dropped off weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Game and Parks offices in Kearney, Lincoln and North Platte.
