The Founder package

More than a shirt and a patch.

The physical pieces mark the beginning, but the lasting value is your permanent place in the club’s history. Achievement awards remain earned—not simply purchased.

Numbered Founder coin

A permanent, individually numbered keepsake reserved for the first 500.

Founding Member T-shirt

An exclusive launch shirt; size selection will be collected when enrollment opens.

Founder patch

A design that will never be issued as a standard annual membership patch.

Permanent Founder status

Your Founder number and registry designation remain yours, even if annual membership later lapses.

Earned through the Quest

Species medallions tell the story.

As the program develops, verified harvests can unlock species-specific medallions, while Forest Four, Prairie Three, Ptarmigan Pair, and complete-Quest patches remain exclusive to hunters who earn them.

Enrollment is not open yet.

American Grouse Hunters is an independent paid-membership project, not a charity. Membership fees are for club benefits and operations, and are not presented as tax-deductible donations. The current form is an interest list only—no payment is collected. Final artwork, fulfillment timing, renewal terms, conservation accounting, and policies will be published before paid enrollment begins.
