The
Tennessee fur Harvesters Association is very fortunate to have many
talented, well informed speakers to provide educational presentations
to people from all walks of life. We enjoy speaking to scout troops,
schools (K-12), universities, civic organizations, other outdoor
organization, etc. We travel all over Tennessee and occasionally
other states (inquire about the feasibility of out-of-state
talks).
The
Tennessee Fur Harvesters does
not charge a fee for speakers.
It is our duty and privilege to educate those interested in
preserving our heritage and our rights as outdoorsmen. After you hear
one of our talks, you may never look at a piece of fur the same way
again!
Here
is just a sampling of the kinds of presentations we do. If you have
something different in mind, please let us know. Often, we can tailor
a talk to a particular subject your students may be currently
studying in school or even a subject you, yourself, have wanted to
know more about. We generally require very little in equipment
set-up, depending on the type of program you need. Often, a table is
sufficient.
To
schedule a speaker, simply call or email us . Usually, couple of weeks to a month's
lead time is sufficient but if you know several months ahead that
you'd like a speaker, don't wait to put in your request.
