jwl Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 I am happy to hear that the wheels are turning for this project in Darlington... we're excited about Dalhousie's own pens coming soon That's awesome, I already offered a long time ago while it was still in the 'thinking stage" to lend a hand on the Port Dalhousie Pen project..it's great news for that area. I look forward to talking to a few of the people involved in the project at the St Catherine's G&F when I go down toward the end of the month. I am going to be the guest speaker that day to talk about my involvement the last couple years with the MNR in a walleye tagging/relocating/rearing/stocking project I am involved with. I am hoping to learn more about the pen project and also looking forward to just connecting a bit more with another local club so that perhaps down the road we may be able to work together on projects, perhaps start a new one, and really just raise some more awareness to some who may not know just what sort of programs the clubs are into, and perhaps just promote a bit more that all the areas conservation-game& fish clubs should network with eachother when volunteers are needed and such. great going. must be some great news for you guys in the Darlington area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
