Discover the allure of spring turkey hunting and learn from the experts at Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) what it takes to get started during a half-day workshop Saturday, May 14, at the Grand Prairie Gun Club.

The workshop is a pilot for a new TPWD Hunting 101 series of skill-builders designed to give novices an introduction to hunting for a variety of wild game species.

There will also be presentations on game care and cooking.
