The Teaming with Wildlife initiative seeks to fund important wildlife conservation, recreation and education programs through a surcharge on outdoor equipment such as camping gear and binoculars. Revenues from OCS revenue is estimated to be equal to projected funds raised by a surcharge. Additionally, the OCS measure may face less opposition from a Congress not favorably disposed toward raising taxes. The OCS proposal is still in the draft stages, with legislation anticipated as early as July. Build Better Business is for you.
Lunch is complimentary.
Relatively little walking is involved. Bill Hunley will meet us at the Peaks of Otter Visitor Center for a stroll around Abbot Lake. Expect high elevation woodland birds. Some light walking is involved. Expect a long, fun day.
