Delta continues to grow every year in membership and budget. I am also pretty sure all of our members in Northeast LA know we don't operate in the LA Delta. Delta does limited habitat work in the wintering grounds that we leave up to our chapters mostly. We let our chapters retain 25% of their fundraising efforts and they decide whether to spend it whether it be on wood duck boxes, hen houses, youth hunts, youth education days or youth shoots, scholarships, wounded warrior projects, or local habitat work on public land. Delta operates in the PPR near Bismarck, ND and Minnedosa, Manitoba. Delta spends the majority of our efforts in the PPR, because if they don't hatch they don't fly anywhere.

As for above, I was correcting you on the funds. It's not LA duck stamp money that goes to Saskatchewan, it's a percentage of State hunting license sales. I have been corrected by Larry on this so check with him if you don't believe me. LA Duck Stamp sales go to LA habitat work.

I usually side with you on issues, but I couldn't not say anything on this stuff. Good conversation. That being said I can't wait to shoot some teal. You have a good day.

10-4, just talking about conservation orgs in general, and wanted to point out the tired arguments I left out a few others as well that do great things
