Get Your Goose On! (At A National Wildlife Refuge)
Get Your Goose, National Wildlife Refuge
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
Washington, DC --(Ammoland.com)- Today the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service launched an educational and outreach photo campaign called “Get Your Goose On! (at a National Wildlife Refuge).
The campaign, which supports the Obama administration’s America’s Great Outdoors initiative, encourages the public to learn more about the National Wildlife Refuge System and the myriad outdoor recreational opportunities it provides.
The campaign launches today with the official Get Your Goose On video. The video features images of the public participating in a variety of outdoor recreational activities on National Wildlife Refuges across the country. Individuals are encouraged to participate in the campaign by submitting photos of themselves on national wildlife refuges to a shared Flickr group set up specifically for the campaign.
The term “Get Your Goose On!” relates to the blue goose, the symbol of the National Wildlife Refuge System. To get one’s goose on simply means to enjoy America’s great outdoors at a national wildlife refuge.
For more information on the campaign, visit the campaign website.
