EDWARD E GARDEPHE ADIRONDACK TRAPPING DISPLAY

Picture
We made front page news in both the Press Republican and New York Outdoor News  when on Saturday, June 20, 2012,  among other events of the Woodworking and Music Weekend, we dedicated the EDWARD E. GARDEPHE ADIRONDACK TRAPPING DISPLAY to Ed Gardephe, retired NYS DEC Senior Wildlife Biologist, for a lifetime of service in the field of Conservation as a Sportsman, Biologist and Educator.  Speakers were John Longware, Lincoln Sunderland and Leeward Babbie.  At the same time we announced the start of conservation related programs.  It is our goal to make available those resources and educational materials needed to help, teach and inspire anyone interested in undertaking such work for their own enjoyment.  Anyone wishing to become involved or contribute time, resource materials or program ideas, are welcome and should contact Steve Dennie at  518-643-8416 or dennies@westelcom.com
