DU's VISION
The vision of Ducks Unlimited is wetlands sufficient to fill the skies with waterfowl today, tomorrow and forever. MISSION STATEMENT Ducks Unlimited conserves, restores and manages wetlands and associated habitats for North America's waterfowl.

These habitats also benefit other wildlife and people. HISTORY The idea for Ducks Unlimited was born by the winds that created the Dust Bowl. Untold acres of wetland habitat vanished in the 1930s, taking with them the promise of generations of waterfowl. In 1937, a small group of conservationists who realized that the majority of North America's waterfowl breed in the Canadian prairies, organized to raise money in the United States for waterfowl conservation in Canada. It was the unique idea that became Ducks Unlimited. DUSFA strives to help with the mission of the Ducks Unlimited National Organization with two major fundraising events a year.

There will be appetizers, dinner, desserts, live/silent auctions, games, raffles...FUN for all ages! Prizes will include guns, hunting accessories, prints, home decor, gift baskets and more. Sponsorships available at various levels. Donations are appreciated.

Hope to see you there, Thanks! Ron
