Reclaiming the Past, Protecting the Present, Preparing for the Future ...
April 2023
I am proud to report the success of our annual litter cleanup on Dunbar Creek. Several members attended and got the work done in a couple of hours. Many anglers on the stream that day expressed their “thumbs up” appreciation when they saw CRTU at work.
I liked to press the point that our work has tried to improve Dunbar Creek in a broad spectrum of ways. Our Glade Run work has improved water quality, our physical habitat work has opened up the stream to seasonal movements by wild brook trout, our continual advocacy has helped to win Exceptional Value status for Dunbar Creek, and our litter cleanups and work to restore portions of Betty Knox Road have improved, or will improve, the experience of all who fish there. The improving fishery of Dunbar Creek is something for CRTU to take great pride in. Thank you all for your untiring efforts there.
For CRTU’s continued operation and effectiveness, the most important task before us at the moment is compilation of our volunteer hours. Our treasurer, Doc Welling, and I need this information to complete CRTU’s Annual Activity report and submit to National TU by May 15. Our valid charter as a TU chapter depends on timely submission of this report. Please have your hours ready to report and email me at bcmoyer@version.net as soon as possible.
I believe we tend to underestimate our volunteer hours. Scour your brain t recall and credit yourself for chapter meetings (including travel time), fund-raising work, banquet planning, help with Glade Run, Dunbar Creek cleanup, Nursery operations, educational events, Trout in the Classroom, grant-writing, and so many more areas of CRTU’s impact. Thank you all.
Ben Moyer
President, CRTU
