Get to know the Missouri Conservation Heritage Foundation’s (MCHF) generous presenting sponsor (and their newest Corporate Sponsor) for the 2026 Open Outdoor 3D Archery Tournament: Maygan Huff & Associates LLC with American Family Insurance! As a born-and-raised outdoorswoman, sponsoring the annual Open Outdoor 3D Archery Tournament is one way Maygan encourages others to make memories out in nature, just as her family did for her.
Conservation isn’t just a word to Maygan, it’s a way of life – one her grandparents instilled in her from day one. A self-professed small-town girl, she grew up on a family farm in New London, Missouri, population 990. “I grew up with a pet cow in the pasture, Daisy, muddy boots by the door, and weekends spent gardening with my grandparents,” Maygan said. “Donating to MCHF feels personal to me because the outdoors helped shape me and gave me so many memories with my grandparents.”
One such memory was sneaking behind the grain bin to scare cattle. “As a little kid, I thought it was hilarious,” she said. But she learned many practical lessons by hunting and fishing alongside her grandpa, stocking their pond with fish, and going to deer camp. Every year, her family hosted a cookout where local hunters and conservation agents swapped stories and shared a meal. “These times brought our family together year after year,” Maygan said.
When she inherited her uncle’s American Family Insurance business, she quickly found that being an insurance broker in New London meant being trusted with her neighbors’ livelihoods. When clients come in, they aren’t strangers – they’ve seen her grow up. They ask after her mom. They have a relationship with the land, just like her. Through MCHF, she’s found a way to give back to her community, local wildlife, and the environment all at once. Maygan’s biggest conservation priority right now is species restoration; a sentiment she says is shared by many in her community.
On nice days, you can find Maygan walking her dogs Hershey and Willy, enjoying the fresh air. If it’s hot, she’ll be out on the lake or the river. On her desk sits a framed photo of her grandparents on the family farm – it’s the first thing visitors see when they walk into her office, serving as a tribute to the people and place that built her. The Open Outdoor 3D Archery Tournament is a beautiful way for Maygan to share the same joy of the outdoors that her grandparents once gifted her. Maygan, Missouri Conservation Heritage Foundation thanks you for your support of the Open Outdoor 3D Archery Tournament and for becoming a corporate sponsor of MCHF!

About Missouri Department of Conservation (MCHF)
In 1937, citizen-led efforts created the Missouri Department of Conservation to restore, conserve and regulate Missouri’s over-stressed fisheries, forests and wildlife populations. During our first 40 years, hunting, fishing, and trapping permits provided most of MDC’s funding, but in 1976 an expanded program, the “Design for Conservation,” was passed to set aside one-eighth of one percent sales tax directly to the agency. That consistent funding, plus a strong, non-political structure and very supportive public helped make Missouri a national leader in conservation. Today we continue our legacy of protecting our state’s wild resources and helping Missourians connect with their natural heritage. Our goal is to sustain diverse, healthy plant and animal communities – well into the future.
