see attached agenda:
We are having a Headwaters Sportsmen’s Association meeting on Thursday, April 28th @ 7 pm at the FWP office (come in around the back). We will be discussing the final results from the 2011 legislative session. I will have a scorecard on how we did with the bills we weighed in on. We will be also talking about what needs to be done in the future so that we do not experience another nightmare legislative session like this one.
I have also asked Julie Cunningham, the area biologist, to attend and give us the latest elk numbers from her most recent flights. We need this data to help support good biological management of our elk herds. Personally, I think it is time we become more involved in the season/regulation setting process, both at the regional level and the FWP Commission level. In Nov./Dec. of this year, the Commission will be starting their biennial season setting process, so the timing is perfect for us to get involved.
It is important that we have as many people attend as possible. The efforts needed to be effective require the involvement of a lot of people.
Thanks for all calls and emails to the legislature this year. They really did have an impact.
