MNCF was awarded one of those grants for $23,000 to assist in our Conservation Leadersip Corps program. This program helps college students in the natural resource field learn how hunting, fishing, and trapping are a vital management tool in keeping healthy, abundant wildlife populations. Many of them are not exposed to this outdoor lifestyle before these experiences.
