North Carolina State Fairgrounds, Raleigh, NC
"Dixie Deer Classic's Outdoor Lore"
Outdoor Lore is one of the several happenings within the Dixie Deer Classic (DDC). The
target audience for Dixie Deer Classic's Outdoor Lore is broader than that of the academic
workshops: youngsters and oldsters; hunters and non-hunters. Outdoor Lore builds upon and
extends the seminars/workshops in the academic event. Examples include roles of the
hunters and non-hunters in wildlife conservation habitat strategies, retriever training,
and wildlife photography It will also provide participants with introductory skills-based
training which is aimed at encouraging participation in outdoor sports - hunting and
wildlife observation. Topical issues of general interest are also on this list. Examples
include coyote predation of the white-tailed deer.
Participation in Outdoor Lore activities is open to any individual who is otherwise
attending the Dixie Deer Classic, and offered on a first come-first serve basis. Admission
to the DDC is free for those 12 and under. For those 13 and older, admission is $10 and
allows entry to the DDC. Youth Day offers half-priced admission to kids age 13-18 ($5).
