PHOTO MELISSA LINDSAY CWFT CHAPTER UPDATE ARTICLE WRITTEN BY STEVE NICHOLSON, DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS We’ve come a long way since the Carleton- Victoria Longbeards - CWTF’s establishing chapter - held their first banquet on June 7th, 2014 in Perth Andover New Brunswick at the Hanscome Adventure Outdoors lodge. The best artists in the world couldn’t have painted a more beautiful setting for such an important day nor could we have been blessed with more gracious hosts than Ralf and Nancy Hanscome. If that wasn’t enough, add an amazing meal prepared by Chef Charlene and the welcoming of our first members who quickly became friends and family to all, making this day what I would call “a most perfect event”. The ground had been broken and the seed was planted for the “New Face of Conservation in Canada”, the Canadian Wild Turkey Federation. From there we continued with two more chapters in our first year, the Moncton Codiac Longbeards and the Truro Struttin Gobblers from Nova Scotia. We certainly couldn’t have made it to year two without the hard work and dedication of these three founding chapters. 2015 saw the addition of six more chapters to the family, one newly established chapter in Belleville Ontario and five former NWTF chapters coming back to the flock under the new wings of the CWTF. In 2016 our growth continued with an additional five new chapters, one in Quebec, two in Manitoba, one more in Ontario and another in New Brunswick. To all the committees, volunteers, members and sponsors, we couldn’t have done it without your hard work, dedication and generosity. You are the CWTF. You are the New Face of Conservation in Canada. 12 - canadian wild turkey federation conserve • enhance • protect cwtf.ca
