JPT member, Ronny Hustvedt, who has been visiting Minnesota's Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness since he was a baby, followed his passion and developed a film that has won some MAJOR recognition! Ronny's documentary called,"Restoring Natural Barriers: The Creation of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness."
The University of Minnesota and the Minnesota Historical Society honored his 10-minute film on the controversy over the preservation of this wilderness area in northeastern Minnesota  with aTopical Prize. For his use of the Minnesota Historical Society Library and online sources in his project, Ronny Hustvedt received the "Best Use of Minnesota Historical Society Collections" Award and $200 from the Gale Family Library.
What makes this recognition really special is that the contest involved 27,000 students from across Minnesota and 600,000 students from across the nation who also participated!

Have you followed your passion and developed a video? We want to hear about it! Share it with us. (Plus - stay tuned to next week's newsletter - because we will be featuring some JPT members who have been creating videos to share their passion about fishing and hunting!)
 
Every week, we draw another member of the Outdoor News Junior Pro Team to win! Make sure you are telling your friends to join for a bonus entry! (They need to give us your full name when they join the team.)  Share this link with them: https://jrproteam.com/join-the-junior-pro-team/
The graduating class of 2020 had to deal with a very different ending to the school year than ANY of us could have imagined last fall! But it is great to know that things like tossing a line to catch some fish, or heading out into the woods to chase a gobbler, are things that don't change. To all of you, make sure that you continue to build the outdoor legacy by introducing younger kids to hunting and fishing, and telling them about the Junior Pro Team.
Today is the last day to submit your entries into the contest! We want to see what you've been up to during this crazy time of social distancing! Submit your pictures, videos or stories HERE
Father's Day is June 21st - here is a project teens may want to consider as a gift for Dad!
Outdoor News recently published plans to build a classic "Leopold" bench - named for the great pioneering wildlife biologist and scientist Aldo Leopold, this bench is not terribly complex to build. If you look below, you'll find a copy of the Outdoor News feature, but it might be easier to follow the building plans if you check the printed edition instead.

Your recent edition of Outdoor News also included some helpful tips on other Father's Day gift ideas.

Find your family's copy of Outdoor News and look for the full page Father's Day Gift Guide. Look through it and tell us the name of one of the items listed for 2020.
Click here to send us the name of one featured item. We will draw one lucky entry with a correct answer to win a JPT Cap & surprise. (Make sure to include your name and your JPT member number when you send your answer!)
