In recognition of her efforts to support outdoors enthusiasts, State Senator Patty Ritchie was recently honored by the Oswego County Federation of Sportsmen with the group’s “Advocate of Sportsmen Award.”
Representatives of the group—which includes 27 sportsmen's clubs with over 4,500 members—presented the Senator with the special award on a recent visit to the State Capitol.
A lifelong outdoor enthusiast, Senator Ritchie has made it a priority to stand up for sportsmen in Albany, working to spearhead legislation and initiatives that improve the outdoors experience for people across the state. Most recently, Senator Ritchie announced legislation to provide a tax credit for certified hunting safety course instructors.
