Adopt a Road Sign

The Traverse Bay Chapter of the MWTHA adopted a stretch of highway M-66 between County Road 620 and Bundy Hill Road in Antrim County. This is a known wild turkey area where there are several feeding locations.

Our first pick up was in September, our next is in April 2010 prior to the start of the 2010 wild turkey season, and we hope everyone will come out to join us and let travelers on M-66 know that MWTHA cares about our environment! If you're interested in participating in the spring cleanup, please contact Linda Gallagher.

Occasionally the same issue appears in some of the sportsmen's web sites. When he asked what our thoughts were on it, did I give that writer an earful!

MWTHA is no longer offering our members membership in Michigan United Conservation Clubs (MUCC). This past winter MUCC hatched a new plan that dictated that any affiliated club must have 100 percent membership in MUCC. The club would pay $5.00 for each member. Members would no longer receive the magazine but could receive it through the internet. If a member received their membership in MUCC through another organization it would have to be documented to MUCC.

This past January we were at our MWTHA booth at the Hunting Time Expo in Grand Rapids. A young lad and his father stepped out of the crowded isle. The boy was wearing a MWTHA hat. The previous year he had convinced his dad to buy the hat. He had brought several photos of the gobbler he had shot last year to show to us. He was holding the adult gobbler by the feet, it's head on the ground and the fan appearing high on his chest.
