Hello all,
Alot of you know me as a technologically retarded guy from Ohio. I'm trying to get with the times and reviewed some great stuff on here yesterday. I was so motivated I decided to sign up and join in the fun, education, discussion, and debate.
I am the owner of The Wildlife Control Company, Inc. and full time Wildlife Control Operator in Central Ohio, a life member of the NTA and OSTA, and former US Army officer. I was involved in the forming of NWCOA from the start and have served as past Regional Director for them. I also helped found the Ohio Wildlife Control Operators Association and served as President in the past and am again serving as the current President.
I must add, I am not currently a member of NWCOA as we are in disagreement over funds placed in trust with the Treasurer that they are unwilling to return to us unless certain (unreasonable) conditions are met.

UMM I wish he had said something. Actaully he did when a group of four of us touched on this issue, his silence on the subject was deafening. I've been out of the in crowd long enough I don't know who's who and don't care. THEY need to sell me on their value. BUT, why didn't they have a table as in years past? OH that's right Dave's idea to stop trying to bring more hobby trappers into the WCO clan finally became their idea.

Gentlemen,
Thank you for the welcome. I look forward to catching up with old friends and making new ones. I hope to gain more from this than I can possibly contribute.
By the way, Paul is not making up the issue of NWCOA keeping "state chapter" funds. If any would like, I can go into more depth on the appropriate thread.
Sincerely,
Dirk E Shearer, President The Wildlife Control Company, Inc.

Howdy, Dirk.
I'm rather computer illiterate myself and have no idea what the NWCOA is, but...
Welcome to the circus, just the same.

I have had several requests for additional information regarding the status of state funds that NWCOA is not releasing.
I will respond on the appropriate thread. Keep in mind, these are my opinions based on the information I have available. If additional information comes forth, I am open to adjusting my position.
