Update on Petition Against Waterfowl hunting

[duksnfish]

Hey folks thanks for all everyone is doing in signing and spreading the word against guiding for waterfowl in Idaho . With out you this will not succeed and the IWA wouldnt be able to support you folks in keeping waterfowl hunting as liberal and open as it is in the state.

We are up to 195 signatures so whos gonna be #200. Not bad for just a week. Keep it going and spread the word. Post any of this on other waterfowl websites you would like and reference them to the petition - [url "http://www.petitiononline.com/iwa12009/petition.html"]http://www.petitiononline.com/iwa12009/petition.html[/url] and also if you havent seen, there is a flyer that you can down load print out and spread around to your favorite chat or watering hole or sporting goods store. Heres the link for it - [url "http://www.idahowaterfowl.org/forums/index.php?topic=1328.15"]http://www.idahowaterfowl.org/forums/in ... ic=1328.15[/url] its the post dated December 17 by IFSteve, the last one that date that he posted. Again thanks

I have to say that we did a great job on the Petition Against Guiding, we got 345 signatures outright and if you add up the number of users with it, my initial esitmate is we are probably close to 500 people who say they will be negatively affected by guiding if it should go through. Should make us all proud of how we here in idaho, and even those of you from surrounding states that have been negatively affected by guiding do not want Idaho to go commercial.
I am going to order the formal petition from the company first thing in the morning so the IWA can present it to those that might matter. The petition will stay on line for a while yet, and if any new signatures are added, they will be included later.
But hey, thanks sportsmen and ladies, way to step up.
