JNAFHC 2021 Finals Weekend Schedule
(this page is under construction!)
Each year the JNAFHC Championship gets more and more exciting. We thought last year was a great one…well wait until this year!! There are many people working to make this 2021 Championship the best ever! Let’s talk about our plans.
First of all, the fact that Juniors from all over North America have the chance to meet each other is amazing. There will be juniors from so many hunts that we will need to wear nametags so that we can go up to each one and meet them! What a rare opportunity for children from across the US and Canada to get together on this fun hunting weekend. One day these juniors may be Masters, huntsmen, landowners, active hunt members, and supporters of the sport. They will be responsible for preserving our open countryside and assuring our sport continues to be enjoyed by future generations. The bonds they form on this special weekend could lead to a lifetime of friendship and cooperation, a network of future foxhunters across North America!
We are very lucky to have our Iroquois friends working away at planning this special Championship. Please take a look below at see what they have planned for us!!
