So long, and thanks for all the fish!
I would like to thank the entire community for 20 years of support for clean water and clean water practices. From manure containment systems to native flower pollinator plots to shoreline protection and erosion control. its been a rewarding experience and the accomplishments have been many.
I will be passing the torch to my replacement in the near future and you should expect the same level of service you have enjoyed these last 20 years!
