Welcome to SCI Miami Chapter

Safari Club International (SCI) Miami Chapter is a South Florida extension of Safari Club International, an organization devoted to the protection of hunting rights world wide.  SCI Miami Chapter was formed in December 1997 through the hard work and dedication of our first President, Ernesto Santana as well as Lawrence S. Katz, Esquire, then the SCI Vice President (he also served as a subsequent SCI President and SCI Miami Chapter President), as well as many others who were equally devoted to the central mission of protecting hunting rights through conservation, educational and humanitarian programs.

URGENT NEWS

SCI Members in Florida must submit comments today on the Hunt Plan for Big Cypress National Preserve. 
When establishing these public hunting lands under NPS administration, Congress specifically directed the agency to authorize hunting.  The Hunt Plan’s preferred alternative (Alternative 3) recommends an adaptive management approach to planning for hunting opportunities on both the Preserve and the Addition Lands of the Preserve.  Safari Club supports the preferred alternative, but remains adamant that the National Park Service should move forward expeditiously to open hunting on the Addition Lands of the Preserve. 

Since the Preserve and Addition Lands were established to allow continuation of hunting in the area, the wilderness purposes of the Preserve and Addition are only supplemental to the continuation of the hunting purposes.  At the very least, the wilderness purposes and management of those wilderness purposes for any of the aforementioned areas should never interfere with the facilitation of hunting activities on those lands.

Comments are due on Saturday, April 21, 2012.  To review the Hunt Plan, please go to: http://parkplanning.nps.gov/document.cfm?parkID=352&projectID=34840&documentID=46071

First for Hunters,
