The Conservation board consists of Robert Rasmussen, Tate Satern, Mary Miner, Brad Emick and T.C. Members serve 5-year terms.

We also have approx 276 acres of public land that is habitat and open for hunting, bird watching, and nature photography. The 38 acres purchased in 2007 has seen usage by many fishermen as well as hunters in the fall of 2008. We are improving the road for access when possible. Signage has been established. Plans include improved boat access and canoe portages for the River Trail.
