Gander Mountain, in partnership with the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), announced its alliance with the NSSF’s 2016 #GUNVOTE campaign on July 26, 2016.

The purpose of the campaign is to support the association’s voter education efforts throughout the course of the election year.

“As a company that is committed to providing responsible citizens with legal access to firearms and firearm educational programs that promote proper use, care, safety and security, we are proud to be partnering with the NSSF to support voter education in this critical election year,” said Derek Siddons, Gander Mountain’s President. “We stand with the NSSF and their mission to promote, protect and preserve hunting and shooting sports and are proud of our partnership to protect our Second Amendment rights.”

In partnering with NSSF, Gander Mountain has made a significant contribution to support the #GUNVOTE campaign, which works to educate gun owners nationwide on the importance of registering to vote and making their collective voice heard at the polls on Election Day. Gander Mountain will be providing #GUNVOTE information to customers in stores this summer and fall.

“Partnering with Gander Mountain, a highly respected brand, which has a solid presence in many key voting states, recognizes the importance of this year’s #GUNVOTE campaign, and its entire organization is on board to help spread the word to its customers,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “Gander Mountain’s commitment will help educate gun owners about the importance of registering to vote, knowing where candidates stand on the issues, and on Election Day, heading to the polls to #GUNVOTE.”
