Start the new year off with a TRACKS Subscription

lschultz • December 23, 2020

For the last 43 years , MUCC has been in many classrooms throughout Michigan and around the Midwest. Our affiliate clubs and friends sponsor thousands of TRACKS Magazine subscriptions in their communities and now, we are pleased to present it to you delivered to your home.  

TRACKS Magazine has long been known by teachers as a premier children’s publication, aligned with the fourth- and fifth-grade science teaching curriculum for Michigan, but it is also used for literacy, writing and social studies lessons for any age. Available monthly through the school year (eight issues from October to May), TRACKS is a great, value-packed magazine with ample learning opportunities.

Each TRACKS is loaded with fun facts about animals in Michigan, as well as jokes and a pull-out poster of the featured animal. As hunters, anglers, trappers and conservationists in Michigan, we know you value kids learning more about what is in their own backyard instead of just what is at the zoo! MUCC makes sure to also infuse each issue with information about how sportsmen and sportswomen contribute to the management of our natural resources. 

With many children learning from home, a TRACKS subscription is a great addition to their online learning. With 16 pages of valuable Michigan based information, TRACKS will allow the child in your life to keep learning about wildlife, while experiencing a very different school year. 

For only $20 per year , you can have eight issues of TRACKS Magazine delivered to that special child in your life. If you order by Dec. 30, we will make sure to have their first issue delivered in January. We hope that you will consider giving this gift of conservation so you can help us support our outdoor traditions long into the future. 

Please help us continue to reach the conservationists of tomorrow! We need your help to prepare the next generation of conservation stewards as educated voters, license buyers and proprietors of our natural resources. With your $20 TRACKS purchase, one more child will understand the importance of hunters and anglers in the conservation world. They will understand the importance of habitat, and they will be the voice of conservation tomorrow.

P.S. If you are ordering this for your own home, order ONLINE now at https://mucc.org/about/ and click on JOIN for the TRACKS Magazine. For a gift, click on GIFT MEMBERSHIP. 

PPS. If you are purchasing subscriptions for more than one household, please call 517-371-1041.

May 2025 NRC Recap

By Justin Tomei • May 8, 2025
The Natural Resources Commission (NRC) met for their May meeting today at Lansing Community College West Campus. The commission voted to return antlered opportunities to the Independence and Liberty hunts at the May Natural Resources Commission meeting. The amendment to restore this opportunity passed after Commissioner Walters withdrew his amendment from April to only partially restore antlered opportunity during these hunts. MUCC testified for the complete restoration of antlered opportunity during these two hunts, per a member passed policy from our 2025 Annual Convention. The commission also voted on, and ultimately accepted, a proposal to allow archery antlerless take in the high snowfall zone in the Upper Peninsula. Additionally, the commission also chose to leave on the table and postpone indefinitely the order to reopen the illegally partially closed coyote season. This prevents the order from dying after today's meeting and makes it eligible for action at a later date. This amendment will remain postponed until the June meeting at the earliest.  MUCC has created the Coyote Coalition to assist in unifying the voice of conservationists in support of Proposal G. To join the Coyote Coalition, visit https://www.mucc.org/coyotecoalition . The commission did adopt proposed fall turkey regulations unanimously. The June commission meeting is Thursday, June 12 in Bay City. To ensure our natural resources remain protected and managed thoughtfully and our outdoor heritage defended, join Michigan United Conservation Clubs today: http://bit.ly/JoinMUCC .

On the Ground Junior: Spring Event Recap

By Katelyn Helsel • May 7, 2025
Our student volunteers have been hard at work improving wildlife habitat on public lands! MUCC’s On the Ground Junior (OTG Jr.) program, a subset of the On the Ground program, is a fully funded field trip program that brings grade-school classrooms into the outdoors to improve fish and wildlife habitat in their local communities. Through activities like native plantings, brush pile building, and invasive species removal, students gain hands-on experience with conservation and positively impact the world around them. Students also participate in educational activities like predator-prey tag to teach them about population dynamics and other natural resources concepts. So far this spring season, MUCC welcomed 69 students, teachers, and chaperones who participated in multiple OTG Jr projects with more on the way! In total, they improved over 12 acres of wildlife habitat. Read on for a recap of each OTG Jr project and see what all our awesome student volunteers have been up to.
