Portage, WI - River Valley Chapter
The River Valley chapter shows another example of Superfund dollars at work. The River Valley chapter submitted for, and received, $5,200 in Superfund money to help with restoration of wild turkey habitat in the French’s Creek wildlife area. The area, which is located a few miles north of Portage, has been undergoing extensive restoration. The amount was donated to help in the expenses not covered by the WI-DNR. One of these expenses was a controlled burn of the area to prepare it for restoration.
Participants in the check presentation were from Left to right, Conservation Warden Casey Kreuger, NWTF Regional Director Ken Jaworski, local DNR Biologist Sara Kehrli, River Valley Committee member Kevin Zarecki and son Tate Zarecki.
