JEFFERSON, N.J. — October 29, 2013 — Sportsmen from across the state will hold a rally with Gov. Chris Christie expected to attend, on Sunday afternoon at the Camp Jefferson Amphitheatre on Weldon Road.
The 4:30 p.m. rally is to show the governor “that we appreciate the accomplishments made on our behalf during the past four years,” said Anthony P. Mauro Sr., who heads the New Jersey Outdoor Alliance, a political action committee focused on hunting, fishing and conservation issues. Among issues to be discussed are the state Marine Fisheries Bureau which, NJOA believes needs more attention and funding to support and sustain recreational and commercial fishing, a $2 billion industry for the state.
Also to be brought up are issues such as improved forest habitat and implementation of forest management methods.
The Sportsmen’s group announced the rally to its members in an email that includes the statement “Meet Governor Christie.”
The governor’s campaign office said Sunday’s appearance is part of a scheduled bus tour of the state which begins Wednesday and will include Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno or the governor or both at various stops over the seven days of the tour.
