Due to the unfortunate world wide COVID-19 pandemic, NYB, Inc., must unfortunately cancel our Annual Banquet this year. It was to be held at the Sunny Hill Golf Resort in Greene County on the weekend of May 2nd. We would have been in violation of a gathering of 50 or more people, but more importantly, we do not want to compromise any of our members or their families. The health and well-being of our membership is our main concern. We are looking into an online auction site for hunts and merchandise that would have been included in the Banquet Live Auction. We will be extending the drawing date for the Raffle, as many members purchase tickets at the Banquet. Please be safe, and take the proper precautions to ensure the health and well-being of your self and your loved ones. Please check the NYB, Inc. website, our Facebook page, and our Instagram for updates. May God bless us all. Thank you. All the best, Al Bottari President, New York Bowhunters, Inc.

Hats off to Al and BOD for their handling of this. From the very start they have expressed a message that puts the well being of the membership and people of the state first. Good work guys, we will come back better then ever from this.

As you know, tomorrow we would have been gathering for the Banquet. The BOB has decided to extend the Raffle drawing date until May 16th. I know that many of you purchased your raffle tickets at the Banquet, and this extension will give you the opportunity to still get them if you wish. You can call the office to purchase them: 585-229-7468 Thank you and stay safe.
