Help Wanted: Trout Unlimited Seeks Sportsmen Organizer

Trout Unlimited's Eastern Water Project is seeking candidates to fill the position of Sportsmen Organizer in Pennsylvania.  The deadline for applications is March 20.  Click Here for details.
          Some of the best hunting and fishing in the East today is found in the region overlying the Marcellus and Utica shales where intact habitat sustains healthy populations of wild and native trout as well as other game species. 
          Without the engagement of sportsmen and women in the conservation outcomes related to shale gas development and other critical issues such as Clean Water Act protections and flood response, these special coldwater rivers and hunting grounds could be significantly altered or lost for future generations of hunters and anglers. 
          To protect these special places, TU is hiring a person to educate, organize, and mobilize sportsmen and women to engage in the dialogue surrounding these issues and others and to develop common sense solutions. The specific office location is flexible, but ideally located in Pennsylvania and/or the Delaware River watershed. It is a one-year position with a high likelihood of extension.
          If interested, please email your resume and cover letter to Katy Dunlap, Trout Unlimited’s Eastern Water Project Director at: kdunlap@tu.org
