Florida Ducks Unlimited State Convention

May 5-7, 2023


Florida Ducks Unlimited,

I am looking forward to May as we celebrate again all the accomplishments of the volunteers of Florida DU.  We have had an amazing year! If you have attended any of our dinner events you have seen the passion, the excitement and the mass amount of fun we have at our fundraising events.  Florida DU is at our best when we combine our passion for conservation with great people who want the same for our wonderful natural resources.  

I would like to personally invite everyone to attend our 2023 Florida DU State Convention.  If you would like to learn more about our conservation work in the state this is a great time to hear exactly what we do in Florida.  If you want to learn more about being a volunteer with DU, you will see the passion our volunteers have for giving back.  If you just want to celebrate with us, enjoy some great food, fellowship with like minded friends and be a part of Florida's best raffle and auction then this is a great event to attend.  

If you have attended in the past I welcome you back and look forward to many more great conversations, if you have never been I look forward to meeting you in person.   Info for our event is below as well as the link to register.  This event will fill up fast so register early for the event and the hotel.

 We will be at The Plantation Inn, in Crystal River.  From May 5-7, 2023.  There will be plenty of options to enjoy your time there, from laying poolside, swimming with the manatees or just relaxing.   

We will kick off our convention with a Friday night Wild Game cookout.  

Hope to see you then.
