It has been a wonderful experience for me being the chair of the State Council. Just getting to know such a wonderful group of passionate conservationists at the state and national level has been great. I thoroughly enjoy trout fishing and spend many days a year out on our cold water streams, but the real “feel good” part of the experience is protecting and restoring these resources.
I encourage everyone to doante to the Watershed Access Fund. Remember a $100 donation entitles you to a free ticket for February’s Annual Banquet. You are still able to receive this ticket if you mail in your donation by February 1
st. If you need information, please send me an email at

I really appreciate the opportunity to serve as chair for the past three years. It has truly been a highlight of my life. Thanks for the wonderful support that I was given.
