THE CONSERVATION SANDBOX. “State of Conservation” panel featuring the nation’s most prolific conservation group and agency CEO’s from across the United States at National Pheasant Fest & Quail Classic. Link in our bio to read more. Wrapping up an incredible weekend at National Pheasant Fest & Quail Classic in Minneapolis, we were given the distinct honor of moderating Sunday’s “State of Conservation” panel featuring the nation’s most prolific conservation group and agency CEO’s from across the United States. The panel included: Marilyn Vetter, PF & QF; Howard Vincent, PF & QF; Land Tawney, Backcountry Hunters & Anglers; Ben Jones, Ruffed Grouse Society; Ted Koch, North American Grouse Partnership; Steve Williams, Wildlife Management Institute; Whit Fosburgh, Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership; Ron Regan, Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies In just the last handful of years, it’s worth noting that conservation groups have engaged in what we would describe as unprecedented, mutual support for many of the urgent conservation issues, policies, and programs that sportsmen and sportswomen are directly impacted by. Furthermore, our work together in the “conservation sandbox,” fueled by members and volunteers, is helping create a sustainable future for our children and grandchildren featuring abundant habitat, plentiful wildlife, clean water, and access to the outdoors. @pheasants_forever @quail_forever @backcountryhunters @ruffedgrousesociety @na_grouse_partnership @thetrcp
