Timed to coincide with Missouri’s celebrated spring turkey season, this exclusive hunt will highlight the critical role hunters play in conservation while fostering meaningful connections among participants. From sunrise gobbles to fireside storytelling, the event will emphasize the heritage, responsibility, and camaraderie that define the hunting community.

“We are grateful to Thompson/Center for inviting us to share camp with their staff and outdoor media to discuss our conservation efforts and amplify the importance of our mission,” said David Gladkowski, NWTF managing editor for web and media.

Participants will take to the woods equipped with the latest innovations from Thompson/Center Arms, including the brand’s purpose-built turkey shotguns and accessories, designed for precision and reliability in the field. MTN OPS will support the experience with performance nutrition products, ensuring hunters are fueled for long days and early mornings in pursuit of spring gobblers.

T/C Chef Jeremiah Doughty of “From Field to Plate” will bring the hunt full circle, transforming fresh wild turkey into unforgettable camp meals, honoring the harvest, and providing guests with a true taste of the hunt.

Beyond the hunt itself, the event will shine a spotlight on conservation initiatives led by NWTF, including habitat restoration, land access programs, and education efforts that continue to expand opportunities for hunters across the country. Attendees will engage in discussions and field-based learning centered on sustainable wildlife management and the future of turkey populations nationwide.

“This is more than a hunt; it’s a gathering of like-minded individuals who believe in giving back to the resource,” said Gregg Ritz, President & CEO of Thompson/Center Arms. “We’re proud to stand alongside NWTF and MTN OPS in celebrating the traditions that unite us and the conservation efforts that sustain them.”

Content captured during the hunt will be shared across digital and social platforms, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the experience while amplifying the message of conservation to a broader audience.
