In previous issues of Turkey Tracks we explained why the Michigan Wild Turkey Hunters Association had to terminate our membership with the United Conservation Clubs (MUCC). They had changed their dues structure thus creating an impossible situation for many statewide conservation organizations.
Eventually they came up with a compromise. A statewide organization could affiliate for annual dues of $250 and have 2 votes at convention.
MWTHA applied to be re-affiliated and at their Board of Directors meeting. On December 5th we were voted in. Our organization is a member of the Conservation Coalition within MUCC. This coalition allows various conservation organizations o come together to address issues and problems of common interest.
Our members can join MUCC individually by contacting them directly and be able to receive the Michigan-Out-Of-Doors magazine.
MUCC has new leadership. With youthful energy and a commitment to our natural resources and hunting heritage there is cause to be very optimistic as they move forward.
