Delta Water Fowl Volunteers Needed

Delta Waterfowl, North America’s oldest waterfowl conservation organization, is starting a local chapter in the Delta Junction area.

DWF chapters are being started throughout North America. Chapter members help raise money for waterfowl conservation, initiate programs that benefit wildlife and offer educational and outdoor opportunities to youth. Delta’s biological programs provide a fresh way to help duck populations and duck hunters.

About Delta Waterfowl: Since its inception in 1911, the Delta Waterfowl Foundation has strived to become North America’s leader in waterfowl ecology and waterfowl hunting. The core of Delta’s operation is its student research program, which was initiated in 1938 by “The Father of Wildlife Management”, Aldo Leopold. Delta students conduct high quality, independent research related to waterfowl and wetland ecology with the ultimate goal of maintaining a sustainable North American waterfowl population for the use and enjoyment of future generations.

Delta’s student research has identified and developed waterfowl management activities that are beneficial to waterfowl production: Adopt a Pothole, Predator Management, and Hen Houses, and all function with the dual goal of increasing waterfowl production and engaging sportsmen in conservation activities.

If you would like to volunteer on the local Delta Waterfowl committee please contact Ric or Tina 895-5045 or email us at rtseward@wildak.net.
