We Do Make A Difference
Last month I reported that the Chapter had contributed funds to
defeat the anti-hunter Alaskan ballot Measure 2 that would have
limited the state’s authority to manage predator populations.
If the fight was lost it would have adversely affected caribou,
moose, sheep, deer and most other hunting in Alaska. Information
just received states that on Aug 26th the Measure was soundly
defeated by resident voters. The Chapter would like to pay
special tribute to the SCI Alaska
and Kenai Peninsula Chapters
who generously donated both time and considerable financial
resources to guarantee that this ballot initiative and the
anti-hunting organizations were defeated.
I look forward to seeing you at the September 10th Chapter
meeting.
