Welcome
to the New Castle County Chapter of Ducks Unlimited
webpage.
From this "pothole," we will bring you exciting news
about our chapter,
from information on upcoming
NCCo DU events, to important conservation news,
and most importantly, how you can contribute to the
important mission of Ducks Unlimited.
Ducks Unlimited's Mission Statement
Ducks Unlimited conserves, restores, and manages
wetlands and associated habitats
for North America's waterfowl. These habitats
also benefit other wildlife and people.

From the desk of the Committee
Chairman...
2009 marks a historic year for the New Castle County
Ducks Unlimited committee as we celebrate a
milestone anniversary. Come celebrate with us 30 years of
raising money for wetlands conservation at one of
our many events. Whether it's golfing,
shooting clays, or the traditional DU dinners, we
will have a variety of events in 2009 that will give
you the opportunity to donate and participate in the
DU mission.
Our specific dates are not set in stone, but will be
in the coming weeks, so check our
2009 Event Calendar often.
Currently we have 3 fantastic events planned with a
potential for a 4th to be held in this spring to
help us kick off our celebration of our 30th year.
-
6th Annual Golf Outing - Deerfield Country Club
- Newark, DE (June 18, 2009)
-
25th Annual Summer Clay shoot - Hopkins Game
Farm - MD (August 2009)
-
25th Annual Fall Sportsmen Dinner - Hockessin
Fire Hall - DE (September 2009)
-
*** 4th
event TBD *** (Spring 2009)
So there you go friends - a great lineup of events
to help support a great cause. In 2008,
because of your support, New Castle County Ducks
Unlimited alone was instrumental in the
preservation, conservation, and restoration of
almost 2,000+ acres across North America, another milestone
towards the never ending effort.
We are also working on developing a commemorative
anniversary sponsor book for our 2009 season.
This is a great opportunity for local businesses who
support the DU mission to advertise and take part in
our 30th year celebration. If you are
interested in sponsoring a page in this book please
contact
jasoncrook@gmail.com. More information
will be available on the site in the coming weeks
Hope to see you at one of our events! Until then
have a safe and plentiful season.
