Thanks from RCFWA

by Mark Oswald, President, Ravalli County Fish and Wildlife Association

On behalf of the Ravalli County Fish and Wildlife Association, I would like to thank the following. But first an explanation. The RCFWA recently installed warning signs (south of Darby) and headlining the Aug. 21 Bitterroot Star to attempt to reduce vehicle strikes on the Big Horn Sheep that are commonly near or on Hwy. 93 near Sula. Human safety, and conservation of the sheep are most important to the RCFWA members. 

Thank you. To Jeremy Shields, of JS Ironworks for procurement and welding sign posts. To Ed Stoddard of Full Curl Manufacturing for powder coating and storage of the signposts. To Fred and Shane Upchurch, and Jerry Walker for helping with the installation. To Steve Tintzman for the coordination of the men and equipment, and transportation to the sites. To Ravalli Electric Co-Op, Kyle Kearns and crew, Matt Olson and Dan Kratofil. And last but not least, the property owners (names withheld) that granted permission to install the signs, without whom this project would not have been possible.
