I own 70 acres next to a Wildlife Area,I want to set it up for Handicapped Veterans to hunt. NonProfit grants?
I have owned this land for 5 years am having distress with payment, if there were accord $ available I would develop it for Handicapped Vets for deer, Turkey. I could place 6 hunters daily SAFELY. They could hunt from wheelchairs or even cars or trucks. I am 100% disabled-everlastingly also so I know what a thrill it is to be able to get into the woods again. I have a small cabin there sleeps 3, want to place up a small pole construction/bunkhouse/kitchen for the comfort of guests. I do NOT want to profit from this, I would just like to be able to keep it and share it. I worked for 20 years as a Wildlife Biologist, I used to take kids in wheelchairs out to a duck blind in a boat, or Pheasant hunting, what a WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE! There is a 240 acre field between my land and County road I have never had tresspass problems. On opening day of any season at the Wildlife Area one can sit in my cabin and watch the deer & Turkeys run into my woods to hide so there is always lots of action.

San Jacinto WA Revitilzation 7/27/07 Part I
The San Jacinto Wildlife Area near Riverside CA along with the California Waterfowl Association (CWA) is doing some major reconstruction on their water delivery system and habitat this year. We interviewed the crew today to show everyone the progress. Scott Sewell is the boss man, Tom Trakes is the man in the ditch amplification the water pipe repair and Lupe and Josh are the other 2 from the crew. Established in the 1980s, San Jacinto Wildlife Area (WA) is a key resource for the region, with over 9000 acres of wildlife habitat that draw more than 25000 public visitors each year. It provides a variety of outdoor experiences, including wildlife viewing, hunting, and hiking. CWA and the California Department of Fish and Game (DFG) are teaming up to restore more than 300 acres of property recently bought by the California Wildlife Conservation Board (WCB) and improve more than 220 acres of existing wetlands on the WA. Grants were awarded by WCB and the Inhabitant Park Service Land and Water Conservation Fund. Thanks to their generosity, work life done now will substantially increase the amount of wetland habitat available to wildlife.
