The Virginia Bear Hunters Association was organized in 1967 when bear hunters had been campaigning each year to have bear hunting season separated from deer season.  It grew out of the Western Virginia Sportsmen's Association which had done similar work, and put the organization on a state-wide basis.  Printed on the first membership cards and still our purpose today,

 "Dedicated to the preservation of hunting bear with dogs and to sound wildlife management principles."

Our primary objectives are:

• Fellowship and friendship
• Promote sound bear management principles
• Promote a positive image of the bear hound hunter to the general public
• Work with government agencies to ensure the primary purpose
• Encourage and promote youth participation in bear hunting with hounds

All memberships are subject to approval by Virgina Bear Hunters Association.
