National Hunting and Fishing Day is held nationwide on the fourth Saturday of every September to recognize generations of sportsmen and women for their contributions to conservation.

Alcohol is not permitted. Visitors are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and/or blankets, so they can sit back, relax, and enjoy the day.

On May 2^nd 1972, President Richard Nixon signed the first proclamation of National Hunting and Fishing Day, urging all citizens to join with outdoor sportsmen in the wise use of our natural resources. NHFD became a tradition and is now an annual event celebrated on the fourth Saturday in September.

PICTURES: See Inside America's Jaw-Dropping Most Expensive Home

A staggering estate listed as "America's most expensive home" is currently listed for sale in Bel Air, Calif., for $295 million, and pictures show a one-of-a-kind home that's almost impossibly elaborate and massive. The 100,000-square-foot, 29-bedroom, 41-bathroom home will be the most expensive private residence sale in the U.S. if it brings that price, and that price tag comes with every conceivable amenity, including a private nightclub, full-service beauty salon, wellness spa, 10,000-square-foot sky deck, 400-foot glass-walled outdoor running track with a view of the city and a private movie theater with seating for more than 40 people.
