Greenwich Sportsmen and Landowners’ Association Application

 

INSTRUCTIONS: 

 

This application is designed for GSLA to try to get to know you.  Please answer all questions fully and honestly.  If you need more room to complete your answers or you feel some clarification is necessary, continue on the back of the application.

 

GSLA is not for everyone because GSLA is searching for the most ethical, safe and responsible bow hunters to participate in our Whitetail deer management Program.  One of GSLA’s primary goals is the harvesting of mature does to reduce the deer herd in Greenwich.  If you are not interested in hunting mature doe deer, GSLA is not the organization for you.  We donate entire doe deer to the Food Bank of Lower Fairfield County in Stamford, CT. 

 

GSLA reserves the right to accept or deny any membership application.

a.        Valid Connecticut Bowhunter ‘s License

b.        No record of Game Law Violations
