Our next general meeting will be on Monday, May 23, at
the Rapides Westside Library in Alexandria. Time is 6:30pm.
This month we welcome Kenny Robertson as our guest speaker. Kenny
is a wildlife agent for the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and
Fisheries, and also president of the Cotile Lake Environmental
Association (CLEAN). Kenny will talk about fishing and boating
regulations, and safety on the water. He will also talk about CLEAN and
some of the activities they are working on.
Due to the number of business items, Kenny's presentation will start the meeting.
