Hey KM members!
I was just informed that Arrow lane is all torn up in both lanes, I asked if it was passable, and was told barely, if you are super careful. Large chunks all over and such. No idea that this was planned or how long it would take.
Just making you all aware ….. i will update you as i get information
Thanks everyone
Rob

It’s almost here!!! Our first test of the season is next weekend June 7 & 8!

We still need a couple volunteers to make it run smoothly!

We need someone to fill the blue water troughs throughout the field, for this you will need a pick up truck or perhaps an atv. We have a large plastic tote to fill with water and drive around to the troughs. This must be done friday evening and again on Saturday evening .

We need one more bird planter on Sunday. If youve never done this, dont worry, we will teach you how!

We need someone to commit to bringing a kyak to the Dundee water on Sunday for the search for duck portion of the utility test.

Thanks !!

Another training day completed! Not the most pleasant weather, but. Some good training was had by all.
As always, THANK YOU to all who came out and helped us run the day!
A ton of hard work and effort go into planning these, so believe me when I say I appreciate all the volunteers and folks who go over and above!
Enjoy a few nice photos
