Game Management Advisory Commission <br />Minutes, April 15, 2013 <br />Page 12 <br /> <br />W. Camara <br />: What I understand is putting the packet together to present to them. One <br />thing that I know, I work with the National Wild Turkey Federation pretty close with <br />them I’ve done a lot of media hunt with them. All these guys that come here to do <br />their media shows they take their shots they call the tourism place personnel and one <br />of the common dominators all the time they have a hard time getting stuff from the <br />tourism authority. They take their own pictures and shots and everything to have in <br />their shows and if you watch a lot of their shows especially when they come to <br />Hawaii, the majority of the show is more about the landscaping. A lot of these guys <br />try to promote the hunting here, but they do come by a little bit of resistance here. It <br />takes time to send them the stuff. It takes some time, one guy that has really worked a <br />lot with them to promote is John Sabati of Kona. He might be somebody you can fill <br />out a little bit. He has worked with a lot of these guys. Every year we have at least <br />two or three. We do promote a lot. I think it’s a great idea. <br /> <br /> <br />P. Bueltmann <br />: Is there a Hawaii Island Tourism? <br /> <br />B. Command <br />: Yes, George Applegate is the Executive Director of the Hawaii Island <br />Visitor’s Bureau. There are possible resources available also through County <br />Research and Development as well. You may approach them of what might be <br />available. <br /> <br /> <br />C. Bailey <br />: I could not hear the outfitter or the source for reference information that <br /> <br />Willie mentioned. <br /> <br />Chair Sylvester <br />: John Sabati <br /> <br />C. Bailey <br />: Good one. <br /> <br />Tom [Lodge], I just want to mention that we have Patrick Fisher that has Safari <br />Outfitting that works with T&T Networking. They’re always promoting Hawaii in all <br />their shows that they do and always mention Hawaii and tourism board. He might be <br />somebody to contact and ask how we can spread this to the rest of the chapter <br />fishermen here. I know that Norm Isaac in the past had a local show here and he was <br />always big in the Hawaii Tourism. He was able to use their logo and drop their name <br />and maybe we can pick the ball back up again. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
