Umarex Airguns Ready for the Squirrel Cook Off

Umarex Airguns is proud to again be a sponsor of the World Champion Squirrel Cook Off.

Scheduled for Sept. 12 at the J.B. and Johnelle Hunt Family Ozark Highlands Nature Center in Springdale, Ark., the Cook Off brings together 40 teams competing for the title. In past years, award-winning chefs from around the nation have plated everything from squirrel tacos to pho to chicken fried squirrel to chili.

"The World Championship Squirrel Cook Off is a great event and a natural fit for airgunners who enjoy hunting," Scott Faldon, Umarex Airguns marketing manager, said. "We really enjoy talking to the hundreds of people there to try some of the unique dishes served up by the competition teams."

The event also hosts the World's Hottest Squirrel Eating Competition and the World Champion Squirrel Cleaning Competition. In addition to the competition plates, the 40 Cook Off teams also prepare food for attendees so come hungry. Then be sure to stop by the Umarex Airguns tent to check out our newest air rifles.
