New Season for Union-Backed Outdoors Show

by Mike Hall, Oct 3, 2009

The popular outdoors show, “TRCP’s Life in the Open,” sponsored by unions in the Union Sportsmen’s Alliance (USA), begins its fifth season on VERSUS Country Sunday, Oct. 4, at 9 a.m. EDT.

The Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership’s (TRCP’s) flagship show’s premier takes us on a Sitka black-tailed deer hunt and salmon fishing trip in the heart of Alaska’s publicly accessible, 17-million-acre Tongass National Forest.

The show explores outdoor adventures and also highlights pressing fish and wildlife conservation issues while venturing to some of the best hunting and fishing destinations that are both accessible and affordable to hardworking American sportsmen.

This season, viewers will learn about stalking Montana’s big bull elk, braving Alaska’s elements and monster salmon and calling in javelina in New Mexico. Other adventures will feature pheasants and bruiser bucks in western Kansas, kudu and hartebeest in Africa, striped bass in the Chesapeake Bay and ducks in California’s famed rice fields.

The USA unions providing support for the show are Machinists (IAM), Boilermakers (IBB), Electrical Workers (IBEW), Bricklayers (BAC), Sheet Metal Workers (SMWIA), Painters and Allied Trades (IUPAT) and Plumbers and Pipe Fitters (UA).
