Georgia Georgia State Chapter

Welcome! This site is dedicated to providing you information on NWTF programs and news in Georgia. Comments, questions or request for inclusion of material should be sent to our email address dwamer@bellsouth.net Welcome to the Georgia State website. Danny Sparks I would to take a moment to introduce myself. I am Danny Sparks and I am honored to have the privilege of being your Georgia State Chapter President. I have been a member of the NWTF since I started the Alapaha River Chapter, Nashville, Georgia in 1997 and have proudly served all those years as the chapter president. Eventually being elected to and serving as one of your state board members, I began my first term on the State Board of Directors in 2000. Today I look at the names of officers and board members , both past and present, and I am extremely humbled by the opportunity to serve the membership and chapters of this great state as the Georgia State Chapter President. I trust that all of you share in my great pride at the remarkable job the members, sponsors, chapters and the Georgia State Board, past and present has, done to support wildlife conservation and the passing of our hunting heritage to our youth. Today Georgia turkey hunters are truly living in the “Good Old Days” of turkey hunting opportunities. It was not to many years ago that we only had about 85,000 birds in Georgia. Fortunately through the financial support of the members, sponsors and chapters, we have worked tirelessly with our state DNR to enhance, support and rebuild of turkey populations back to over 400,000 birds. Since 1985 over $2,944,294 has been raised and spent by Georgia chapters on projects within the state. A sampling of these projects is provided and can be found under the Super Fund heading. I hope you enjoy your visit to the site and either start or continue your membership and support to our efforts and I look forward to the great opportunity of serving the members and the outstanding NWTF chapters of this great State.
