The meetings are organizational meetings to start a local chapter of the NWTF. There were 10-12 hunters or sportsmen that think its important to give something back to what they love to do.

Now that the chapter is started, the meetings will be to plan for the fund raising banquet. The banquet date for the Emory River Chapter is August 8, 2009. It will be held at Central High School in Wartburg.

By having a local chapter banquet, this chapter can request money to be spent in Morgan County from the State Chapter Superfund. These monies can be spent on habitat improvement, land aquisition, youth events to teach the youth about the outdoors, women events, scholarships for high school seniors that are going into the outdoor field, turkey hunters care, Wheelin Sportsman events where we give the disabled an opportunity to get back outdoors and too many other things to mention here, but you get the picture.

NWTF is a nonprofit organization Dedicated to the Conservation of the Wild Turkey and the Preservation of the Hunting Tradition.

spctbone, this is Tim. You are welcome to come any time you can make it along with anyone else on the site. I was wandering what happened to you. There have been around 8 - 10 folks at the meetings and should only get better. It will be a great chapter with all the enthusiasm at the meetings.

I hope you can make it.
