This is the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries' "official" volunteer program which will keep you connected with many other interesting events and opportunities available around the state. By enrolling in the CWF program, you will be entitled to receive monetary reimbursement for your travel (mileage) whenever you do a program or exhibit for me (or for them), and they also occasionally host regional training events and an annual dinner.
