20th Annual NWTF Conservation Cup NWTF-WI is hosting the 20th Annual WI Conservation Cup 4-person golf scramble on Saturday, August, 12 at the Holiday Lodge near Tomah. This 4-person fun event allows your team to play your best ball. We have numerous hole prizes, awards for teams, raffle and silent auction and includes lunch. Tee time is 10 a.m. and we wrap up by 4 p.m. Please consider attending this event and meet and greet State Board members and other local chapter leaders from around the state. Hope to see you there!  
 In 2016 the Clark County Forestry and Parks Department and The Black River Country NWTF Chapter teamed up to create five wildlife openings totaling 8 acres in the Clark County Forest. “Wildlife openings in a heavily forested landscape are critical for turkey brood-rearing habitat,” according to Rick Horton, NWTF District Biologist. “Young turkeys eat mostly insects in summer as their rapid growth requires a lot of protein. Openings with a lot of different kinds of flowering plants offer many different insects for the young birds”. The project used $1,200 of NWTF Super Fund and was matched with $6,333 from the County, so every NWTF dollar was matched with over $5 in outside funding!  Land before the restoration began  Land after the restoration. Bluff Country Long Spurs hosted their Annual Landowner Appreciation Day event on June 25th at Lochner Park in Prairie du Chien. Area turkey hunters invite landowners that open their land up to allow a place to turkey hunt to this event for great food and fun as a way to say thank you. Bluff Country Long Spurs have been hosting this Landowner Appreciation Day event for over 27 years, great job to the entire committee! The 2017 MOHEE event took place on May 17th and 18th. This was attended by Roger Clark (Timber Country Cutters & State Board Member), Dave Burke (Timber Country Cutters & State Board Member), Scott Stankowski, Scott’s son CJ and Randy Kruzicki all from Central WI Struttin’ Toms  Have you ever wanted to try shooting a bow or .22 rim fire? Take a UTV/ ATV for a spin?

The Wisconsin State Chapter NWTF has once again invested dollars in helping your local NWTF chapters to “Build the Flock”. The program last year was very successful and we added many new NWTF volunteers statewide. Excellent job to all chapters for your great recruitment efforts!!! Let’s take full advantage of the program again this year. Here’s how this year’s NWTF Wisconsin “Building the Flock” program works… |
