Do you like to hunt, fish and recreate on our state’s public lands? Chances are, you can thank the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program for that. For 30 years, the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program has been protecting our lakes and streams, securing critical wildlife habitat and providing world-class recreational opportunities. However, unless the legislature and Governor renew the program in 2021 it will go away.
So we need your help. Help us to ensure that this critical program continues by contacting the Governor and your state legislators. You can create a personalized postcard to tell your elected officials why you support our public lands.
Send a personalized postcard to your elected officials today to ensure that our next generations will be able to hunt, fish and recreate – like you did – on Wisconsin’s public lands.
