One thing that may help NWCOA get members is do something for members other than charge 250 dollars for membership and for what?? I was a proud member until I realized there was no one doing anything for me for my money that I paid every year.I can use that money and buy equipment and at least get some return on it.Just my two cents worth but may be a starting point.I dont know all the answers but do agree we need a national group

This is a quick email I just sent to my representative Dear mr.Langevin, My name is steve rouleau and I am one of your constituents. I am writing you this email to urge you to get the PESTT act removed from this years farm bill.I am the owner of NE Wildlife solutions http://newildlifesolutions.com/ in R.I. If this work is to be done by usda wildlife services it would most certainly put a crunch on my business as well as others like mine in the U.S. The government should have no business doing the work that private companies are more than capable of doing. Don't we have a MAJOR unemployment problem in this country? I am asking you to please do some research on the PESTT act,and to urge other members to do the same. If you would get back to me personally I would greatly appreciate it,I understand you are a very busy man but this is very important to a lot of people. Thank You, Steven d Rouleau

Paul,Im not talking about a magazine although it would be nice. I think they should offer some educational materials or something without having to pay extra for it.The patch that you wear around big deal anyone can have a patch made,I can use your name in my advertising that I am paying for Really???What a deal.Yes I know you get a discount on insurance from certain companys Why? I can and have bought the same amount of coverage from other companys for even less. I dont mean to bash NWCOA but until they can prove to me that they are there to help me rather than just take my money Ill stand alone.Membership to the NRA for example isnt near as expensive and they lobby for our rights all the time.

Jim....I hear you. I had similar feelings. However, I did speak to someone on the board, and they do travel to different states to influence new laws. If they had the membership size of the NRA, then the dues would be pennies. I do think that they could do a better job communicating all the good stuff that is happening.
ADC is a tough group. Leave us alone, and we will self destruct. You can see it happening with all the fragmentation.

Cody you already know where I stand on this even privately. Sell it to Charmin. That document is not gonna help to protect the rights of private citizens like Joe The Trapper or most any private wildlife control company it is gonna be used to hurt them.. As I said it is not wine before its time. Forget NWCOA and quoting one of theirs voices NWCOA is meaning it is very hard for me to follow exactly what they are trying to accomplish . It is impossible to even find out where they stand on any issues. and thank you Steven Rouleau of Rhode Island .
