The inauguration of the new headquarters of the Confederation of Tuscan Hunters di Certaldo in the province of Florence. A new, modern and efficient structure that will become not only the reference point for all hunters in Certaldo, but also for the entire Val d'Elsa. A large crowd of hunters and citizens of the area were present at the inauguration, as well as numerous representatives of local institutions; the mayor Giacomo Cucini, the commissioner Jacopo Arrigoni, the marshal of the Certaldo carabinieri station Leonardo Micheloni. The honors of the house were made not only by the President of Federcaccia di Certaldo Claudio Marchi, but also by the President of Federcaccia of Florence Simone Tofani who in front of a crowded room, recalled how this is only the first of the many steps that must be taken to arrive at the establishment of numerous offices such as that of the Florentine village.
The birth of the common house of hunters in Certaldo is a concrete and significant example of how we understand the word Unity. Not a slogan, but a practice and the substance of a common value. An open and inclusive process for those who want to make a contribution and participate in a journey towards the future of the hunting and hunting world. Federcaccia declared Tofani, is making its story available and its organizational strength to overcome this challenge. This location will also be the center of many services aimed at hunters as well as a place open to expressions of the territory and the local community. A branch on the Val d'elsa that has the ambition of becoming a center of sociality, training and social and cultural promotion. He then went on Mark Romagnoli, Secretary of the Confederation of Tuscan Hunters who recalled how hunting has reached a critical historical period and that a turning point is now necessary.
The constitution of territorial CCTs is just another step in a very specific direction; that ofUnity of the hunting world. A path that is very necessary to re-legitimize hunting in society in order to be able to face and win the cultural challenge of opposition to vulgar animalism and the anti-hunting front. On behalf ofARCT (Regional Association of Tuscan Hunters) Matteo De Chiara intervened who, after due thanks to the Federcaccia of Florence and to the regional CCT for making a dream come true, drew attention to the pressing issues concerning the hunting world Appeals from animal rights activists, harassment And the marginality that the hunting activity is forced to suffer despite the history, tradition and its own value; all challenges that require a united, strong and scientifically avant-garde hunting world.
Continuing with a dutiful reference to the need to recover relations with institutions, he highlighted how the synergy developed in Certaldo should be taken as an example. Considerations also taken up in the interventions ofCouncilor Jacopo Arrigoni and the Mayor Giacomo Cucini praising the work of hunters in environmental wildlife management, they recalled how this way of operating benefits the territory and that the unity of the hunting world represents a value for wildlife and environmental management.
