Northfield Selected to Host Governor’s Pheasant Hunting Opener

Northfield has won the bid to host the Governor’s Pheasant Hunting Opener in October 2026—an exciting, high-visibility opportunity to showcase our community on a statewide stage. This event is about more than hunting; it highlights our hospitality, conservation efforts, businesses, youth involvement, and community pride.

To make this event a success, the Chamber is forming a leadership team and committees to help shape the experience, with monthly meetings and Chamber coordination. Success will mean strong partnerships, engaged residents, positive media coverage, and visitors who leave impressed and eager to return.

Two upcoming informational meetings will be held on Wednesday, February 25 at 10:00 a.m. (virtual) and Thursday, March 5 at 9:30 a.m. (hybrid at the Chamber office).

If you are interested in getting involved, please contact Rachel at rachel@northfieldchamber.com.
