Excerpt from Minot Daily News Interview with ND Game and Fish Department Director, Terry Steinwand, 25 March 2007

MDN - .."What do you see is the value of sportsmen's clubs, such as this Pheasants for the Future group here in Minot?"

TS - "Invaluable.  I don't think you can put a measure of how valuable they are.  This is only one of many in the state.  Without these people, there's not a whole lot we can do.  Yes.  We can manage the fishery, but we need people like this to help with the private landowners and particularly with the political aspect of things.  I'm one person in the eyes of our congressional delegation.  You are one person.  You put a whole lot of persons together and you've got some power."
