A couple of areas of concern to us will be reducing shoreline erosion by "softening" the Niag R shoreline, i.e. more wetlands, and the Asian carp.

I'll be there, hopefully I'll see you there, too.

A good meeting, Dan.  Close to 40 people there, many of them students or connected with a college in some other capacity.  Made a few contacts & got some leads to help out our conservation work.

That's pretty sweet!  It's too bad that I have evening class every day this semester

Dan...yeah, that's a bummer.  Just make sure you have a clear schedule when musky season opens.  We'll get warmed up on the "other esox."

At the meeting, they presented quite a few funding opportunities that, with the right process, we could possibly get.  It's time for me to learn the processes & get to work (before the musky opener).
