Virginia Trappers Association, Incorporation & Bylaws

We, the trappers of Virginia prompted by a feeling of profound respect and gratitude toward the many valiant fur trappers who have gone before us, whose courageous deeds and exploits will forever embellish the pages of our Nation’s early history, and being duly grateful for the rich legacy of wildlife bequeathed by our predecessors, do associate ourselves for the following purposes:  to promote sound conservation, legislation, and administrative procedures; to save and faithfully defend from waste, the natural resources of the Commonwealth of Virginia; and to promote a continued annual harvest of furbearing animals using the best tools available for that purpose.
