Guest Speaker for November's Membership Meeting Peter Gravett from the Hartley Nature Center. Topic: What goes on @ the Hartley Nature Center and how they are teaching us and our children about wildlife and nature. Try to attend, it should be very interesting! ***************************** Guest Speaker for October's Membership Meeting was: Dave Zentner spoke on protecting Minnesota's hunting, angling and habitat and how it pertains to the MN Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment which will appear on the November 4th ballot. If you missed this meeting, you missed a very informative talk. Remember, get out and vote on November 4. Thank You Dave! ************************** Guest Speaker for September was: Judge Eric Hylden gave us an update on the Supreme Court's recent decision on the 2nd amendment case in Washington DC. The 2nd amendment is important to many of us: the right to own firearms. Judge Hylden spoke a few months ago on the same subject. Wednesday night he will give us an update on the Supreme Court's decision and how it could affect our right to own firearms in the future and what the anti-gunners are up to because of it! It was very interesting. Thank You Judge Hylden! **************************** **Past Events: in case you missed them!** UNS 2008 CLUB PICNIC The 2008 UNS club picnic was on Sunday, August 10, 2008 from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. We all had a great time and great weather.
