Conservation Police Officers Honored
On April 20, 2010, The Virginia Hunter Education Association appeared at the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries Board Meeting to honor two Conservation Police Officers for their dedication to the Hunter Education Program and the Hunter Education Association. The two officers recognized were Office Kris Dougherty and Senior Officer Crystal Weidman.
These two officers are both Regional Coordinators of the Hunter Education Program. Since becoming Regional Coordinators they have earned the respect of the Hunter Education Instructors because of their unwavering support of their instructors and the program.
Vernie Kennedy, President of the Hunter Education Association stated they have always been available and willing to help with any project the Association is conducting. They have spent weekends away from their families and personal lives to help the Association. DGIF, Hunter Education, The Hunter Education Association, and the people of this state are very fortunate to have these two dedicated people in the hunter education program.
