The next time Kent Erickson, a member of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 26 in Washington, D.C., heads out for fishing on the Chesapeake Bay or deer hunting in the Maryland mountains, he can haul his gear in a brand new Chevy Silverado.
Erickson is the winner of a drawing for all members of the Union Sportsmen’s Alliance (USA) held earlier this summer. The truck giveaway was one of several ongoing promotions USA runs for its nearly 20,000 members.
General Motors and its Chevrolet division are partners with the USA, the hunting, fishing and conservation club for union members, retirees and their families, and the Teddy Roosevelt Conservation Partnership (TRCP).

Big news out of the Union Sportsmen’s Alliance (USA). Last month, the group welcomed its 10,000th member. Launched in 2007, the USA is a joint venture of the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership (TRCP) and 22 unions. The nonpolitical hunting and fishing club is open to union members, retirees and their families.
Martin Reier, a member of Electrical Workers Local 242 from Duluth, Minn., is the USA’s 10,000th member. As a special recognition, Reier received a U.S.-made Beretta 3901 American Citizen shotgun with the USA logo on the receiver. Reier says he learned about the USA at one of his local meetings and was eager to join a club supported by his union.
Once I heard about the USA and all they had to offer, I was ready to sign-up. I think it’s very important for hunters and anglers to belong to organizations, like the USA, that are working to protect their hunting and fishing heritage.

General Motors and its Chevrolet division are partners with the USA, the hunting, fishing and conservation club for union members, retirees and their families, and the Teddy Roosevelt Conservation Partnership (TRCP).
Says Fred Myers, USA executive director:
In these tough economic times, we are honored that Chevrolet recognizes the importance of preserving our national resources and has stepped up to support the TRCP conservation mission and its union-dedicated hunting and fishing club. Through this partnership, we can educate sportsmen about access opportunities around the country, while enhancing the value of USA membership.
