We will nominate you and vote at the next meeting in April! Thanks!
I am a licensed falconer in Vermont and a member of NAFA who would like to become an associate member of your organization but don’t know any MA falconers to nominate me.
You can email our liaison to cone to our summer picnic if you can and meet some of us!
I’ll do that. Thanks!
After talking with Bill Johnston, I’d like to ask to be considered for associate membership in MHFT. I am a second year MA licensed apprentice, and member of NAFA. Thanks in advance for your consideration!
Hi David, Thank you for your interest. You will need to be nominated at our next meeting by a current MFHT member. Maybe your sponsor can do that or email me if they can’t make it to the meeting.
Hi Bill,
Jim Curtin here. Dave Stratton is a gentleman with a snappy, second year red-tail and well trained. He needs to do more hunting and see other falconers. I am no longer a member, but recommend Dave belong to MFHT.
I heard you had a fall, and hope all is mending well.
Jim
