WOC Annual Meeting Addresses Wildlife at
Risk: Wyoming's "Quite Crisis"
Despite spectacular summer weather, nearly 100 WOC members and friends attended our 2002 annual meeting in Dubois on Saturday, June 15.
Nearly 50 early arrivals enjoyed refreshments and conversation at a reception on Friday evening at the National Bighorn Sheep Interpretive Center.
The next day, more than 90 conservationists gathered at the Headwaters Arts & Conference Center for wildlife and fisheries panels and keynote speeches on various aspects of the "quiet crisis" clouding the future of our state's rich wildlife heritage.
