The Nebraska Game and Parks Foundation • Nebraskaland
Even More Impacts
The Foundation's role in providing additional
opportunities to Nebraska's outdoor enthusiasts
goes even further than updated facilities and new
properties to access.
With each hunting or fishing permit sold,
Nebraska receives excise tax money through
the Pittman-Robertson and Dingell-Johnson acts,
respectively. This includes lifetime hunting and
fishing permits.
In addition, when hunting and fishing equipment
is sold, excise tax money is received. So when a
hunter becomes even more excited to venture into
the field, because of a new place to go, and visits
Cabela's, Scheels or another local outdoor retailer,
even more opportunities can be funded for current
and future hunters and anglers.
