Courageous, loyal, and ready to serve, these amazing canines train as thoroughly as our military heroes and willingly charge into the face of danger without hesitation, with unfl appable determination and complete focus on the mission. Their highly developed olfactory organs make them well-suited for tracking, searching and rescuing, sniffi ng out bombs, and pursuing perpetrators. It was wonderful to see the rapport and sophisticated level of communication between dog handler and canine. When SSgt Hines gave the command, MWD Szuli bolted in pursuit of the “perpetrator”, i.e. SSgt Rainge, and successfully captured him. With a simple gesture, the command for at ease was given by the handler and the military working dog seamlessly made the transition from attack mode to rest.

With 1,357 miles of coastline, involvement by 34 different counties, and over 2,500 artificial reefs deployed to date, Florida manages one of the most diverse and most active artificial reef programs in the United States.

This Summit occurs every 3 to 5 years and provides the format for local partners to meet and exchange information. It is a critical opportunity for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Con- In Memoriam servation Commission Artificial Reef Program and Florida Sea Grant to disperse high-quality information, experience and program goals and objectives directly with all of Florida’s The 2010 Artificial Reef Summit is dedicated to the memory of Chris Koepfer, the long-time Lee County Arti- artificial reef stakeholders. ficial Reef Coordinator who passed away in 2009.
