FVTU will once again partner with Central Wisconsin Chapter to work with the Wild Rose DNR crew on a variety of projects from May until September.  Each workday will be scheduled on the third Saturday of the month.  This is a great opportunity to meet people from other chapters, work alongside the DNR team that our chapter helps to fund every year and improve the trout streams of the Central Sands region.
