New Castle County Ducks Unlimited to celebrate a milestone Anniversary in 2009. Come celebrate with us 35 years of raising money for wetlands conservation.

 

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.

                                                                                                                           NCCo DE DU has been recognized for the 5th consecutive year as a Presidents Top 100 Chapter!!

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 35 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.

Currently we have 5 fantastic events planned to help us kick off our celebration of our 35th year.

  • Spring Dinner - Clarion Belle - Newcastle, DE (May 2, 2009)

  • Lucky 7s Clay Shoot - Hopkins Game Farm, MD (June 7, 2009)

  • 6th Annual Golf Outing - Deerfield Country Club - Newark, DE (June 18, 2009)

  • Summer Clay shoot - Hopkins Game Farm, MD (August 2, 2009) <=Click for flier

  • Fall Sportsmen Dinner - Hockessin Fire Hall, DE (September 17, 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 35th year celebration.  If you are interested in sponsoring a page in this book please contact me directly or

Hope to see you at one of our events! Until then have a safe and plentiful season.
