Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting Minutes — February 13, 2017 things that we can involve these kids with and that really is kind of the focus, I think, that we want to start off on. TN: I wanted the commission members to chime in on the idea. I want to go forward with it on the West Hawaii side — I'm hoping that you folks would want to go along with me and take care of the Hilo. I'm about to meet with some hunting groups and I've already met with some dive shops and they're all for it and we're gonna start planning it for it on the West Hawaii side. TL: OK. So is there a motion anybody that we should start working on looking at a fishing -hunting, hunting -fishing day? OK, Teresa? Would you make a motion that we get started on the process of a hunting - fishing day? TN: Sure. I'd like to move that we start planning a year ahead in advance for a hunting and fishing tournament both on the Hilo and Kona side and I'm hoping to have a second on this. TL: OK. Can I just modify that a tiny bit and take the word tournament out... TN: Sure. I'II call it an event. TL: OK. TN: Or you can even call it an educational... TL: So there's a motion to start work on a hunting -fishing event to incorporate both the east side and the west side. All in favor? NP: Second. 5. NRA Range Development conference in Indianapolis, March 11- 13, 2017. Possible attendance of one or two GMAC commissioners. TL: OK. All in favor? [The ayes have it] Any nay? No? OK.
