Gussago Hunting Fair: Preparations are underway for the 64th edition of the event, scheduled for Saturday 11 and Sunday 12 September.
GUSSAGO: Fans of the sector are experiencing an eve of uncertainty for the postponement of the regional resolution on the species in derogation, in fact the Gussago Hunting Fair, scheduled at the Casaglio Sports Center on 11 and 12 September, blows out 64 candles in a climate incandescent. The reason? The postponement, just close to the hunting season, of the regional resolution that allows to hunt certain species by derogation.
This year (at least so far) it is not the environmentalists who put a spoke in the wheel of the approximately 29 brescian double-shots, but the Lombardy Agriculture Commission which had registered the abandonment of the session by the representatives of the center-right majority, postponing the 'process to be presented to the Pirellone Council in mid-September. Hence the protests of hunters who, on the eve of the hunting season, experience a climate of uncertainty and disappointment.
At the demonstration in Gussago, waiting for positive news from the Region, this will be the dominant theme. Preparations are already underway for a review that for years has had a provincial significance. It was organized by the section of the Federcaccia di Gussago, led by President Valter Veneziani, and by the more than 300 members, with the patronage of the Municipality and the Province. The goal of the promoters? Reaching 15 visitors, even if everything is linked to the weather conditions.
