North Country Conservation Series
We are super excited to announce the first ever North Country Conservation Series Podcast!!!
Question, what is a podcast? A podcast is a digital audio file of a recording that took place in a studio. Just like listening to the radio in your car, a podcast can be downloaded on the internet via a computer or smartphone to be listened to in your home, in your car, or anywhere!
On January 8th, 2021 the District Manager met with Conservationists of Coos County at Phlume Media in Lancaster to record the first three episodes of this new series. Guest conservationist speakers included:
1-Lt. Wayne Saunders, retired NH Fish & Game Conservation Officer & Operation Game Thief & Wardens Watch Podcast
2-Andrew Schafermeyer, NH Fish & Game Fisheries Biologist
3-Dave Falkenham, Forester
The three episodes include an Introduction, Conservation Job Specific Questions, a Reflection on the History of Coos County and What to Expect in the Future.
Please join the District Manager, Whitney Lewis on this new adventure!
