Houlton Rotary guest speakers for Monday March 17, 2014
Al Cowperthwathite, Northern Maine Woods
Don Kleiner, Executive Director Maine Guides Association
Dale & Eleanor Goodman, North County Lodge

Don and Al both spoke on the impact that the upcoming Bear Hunt referendum would have on the wildlife, community, and the economy. Houlton Rotary Club does not take a political stand on this issue. They warned us about some of the advertising that will be used to emotionally impact voters, and to please look past the ads and do your research. They not only spoke on the financial impact to Maine’s economy but also on the potential danger to allowing the bear population to grow even more than it currently is. For more information please contact either Al Cowperthwaite at Northern Maine Woods, or Don at Maine Guides Association. Both are willing are to come and speak to anyone.
