2017 Minnesota Conservation Volunteer Annual Report central lakes trail by gary alan nelson 2017 Minnesota Conservation Volunteer Department of Natural Resources Annual Report to MCV readers who supported this nonprofit magazine and its education and outreach initiatives from July 1, 2016, through June 30, 2017 Our mission is to encourage conservation, enjoyment, and sustainable use of Minnesota’s diverse natural resources. What You Support. Minnesota Conservation Volunteer magazine relies on readers to fund its entire operation. This past year, readers covered the cost of publishing and mailing magazines every other month to about 112,875 subscribing households, businesses, and organizations. The magazine uses in-depth reporting, writing, and photography to tell stories about Minnesota’s wild places, wild creatures, and outdoor recreation. MCV supports the work of the Department of Natural Resources but is not funded by the agency. Your contributions also went to support the MCV website and social media. Our website presents current feature stories alongside multimedia content including videos and slide shows. Our online archive of searchable PDFs gives easy access to every story published since October 1940. The MCV Education Fund, initiated with a bequest from Dale L. Charbonneau in 2012, covered the cost of sending more than 3,100 magazines bimonthly to every public school and library in the state. It also made possible an education project with Cass Lake–Bena Middle School in northern Minnesota. Six times during the 2016–2017 school year, participating teachers received classroom sets. Every student in the school had a chance to read each issue, use Young Naturalists study guides, and take Minnesota Conservation Volunteer home. Welcome New Readers. A total of 3,695 new readers signed up for Minnesota Conservation Volunteer this past year. Some 1,377 subscribers gave gift subscriptions. Others told their friends and neighbors how to join the readership. Whenever you introduce someone to Minnesota Conservation Volunteer, you strengthen our conservation mission. Paths for Contributing. Minnesota Conservation Volunteer asks every subscribing household, busi- ness, and organization to contribute. You may use the form that comes with every issue or call or go online to give using a credit card. You may sign up online to give monthly. Some readers choose to make a legacy gift through a bequest or a gift of retirement account assets. The amount you give is always your choice. Unless otherwise requested, the name of each person who contributed between July 1, 2016, and June 30, 2017, appears in this annual report. Thank you for your vital support of Minnesota Conservation Volunteer.

  • Fishing Breaks Time Is Precious • Use It Fishing 2
    FISHING BREAKS TIME IS PRECIOUS • USE IT FISHING 2 INTRODUCTION I grew up surrounded by chalkstreams and my formative fishing years were spent on the River Meon, a tiny stream in the east of Hampshire. As my angling horizons expanded, it came as something of a shock to discover that not all rivers were gin-clear, full of fish you could see that were eager to take a well-chosen fly when the hatch was on. The more I have travelled and the more I have fished, the more I have come to realise how very special our English chalkstreams are. I would not be so arrogant as to tag them ‘the best fishing money can buy’ – every angler has a different benchmark for that, but these rivers are undeniably unique for all the very best of reasons. It is now more than 30 years since I started Fishing Breaks and it remains an enormous pleasure to share with you the thrill of fly fishing on these beautiful chalkstreams. I do hope you have the chance to fish with us some time very soon. 3 Simon Cooper, Founder and Managing Director Nether Wallop Mill, Hampshire READ MY BOOK LIFE OF A CHALKSTREAM www.fishingbreaks.co.uk | 01264 781988 4 THE CHALKSTREAMS England boasts 98% of all the chalkstreams that exist on our planet. It is the birthplace of modern-day fly fishing, which FISHING means that you have the pick of some of the best and most famous trout rivers in the world. DAY RODS If you had to sketch in your mind the place for the perfect Book by the day for one person or more.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT The subject of this thesis is the development of a literary culture among the Romanians in the period 1829-1890; the effect of this development on the Romanians’ drive towards social modernization and political independence; and the way in which the idea of literature (as both concept and concrete manifestation) and the idea of the Romanian nation shaped each other. I concentrate on developments in the Principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia (which united in 1859, later to form the old Kingdom of Romania). I begin with an outline of general social and political change in the Principalities in the period to 1829, followed by an analysis of the image of the Romanians in European public opinion, with particular reference to the state of cultural institutions (literacy, literary activity, education, publishing, individual groups) and their evaluation for political purposes.
