What is UW-F?
United
Waterfowlers – Florida, Inc. is a group of Florida duck hunters whose
mission is the improvement of duck hunting in our state.
How is
UW-F different than DU or Delta?
UW-F
is a Florida organization concentrating on the improvement of duck hunting
opportunities and success in Florida. DU and Delta are national
organizations with conservation as their major mission. Most UW-F members
are also members of these two important groups. UW-F is not a fund raising
organization and does not compete with DU or Delta for money or members.
UW-F will not fill your mailbox with donation requests. UW-F operation
expenses are covered by the $25.00 annual dues and one or two raffles per
year. UW-F does not raise funds for transfer to national projects.
UW-F
does act as an informal political action committee, participating in
political matters that the charters of DU and Delta may not allow. UW-F is
the VOICE of Florida duck hunters in numerous meetings and hearings across
Florida.
What will
UW-F do for me?
UW-F is your VOICE at the federal, state and local
government agencies. UW-F officers, directors, and members attend and
monitor the meetings of the Atlantic Flyway Council, FWC, WMA, Water
Management Districts and similar agencies. UW-F informs members of
important subjects, puts together consensus opinions and asks members to
“turn on the heat” with e-mails, letters, phone calls, etc… to the
targeted bureaucrats or politicians.
How does
UW-F communicate with the membership?
UW-F
utilizes electronic medium to handle the majority of communications. A
Yahoo group e-mail list is used for instant membership wide discussions as
well as a UW-F web site and UW-F member’s only forum. UW-F publishes a
newsletter several times a year with reports to the membership from
regional directors and officers. Directors’ meetings are open to all and
scheduled in different regions of the state to allow members personal
input.
