115 North American Game Warden Museum with Tom Caifa and Sheila Paquette

The North American Game Warden Museum could not be in a more perfect spot. Nestled amid the pristine forest, prairie, and floral gardens of the US/Canada International Peace Garden, it is the only space in the world dedicated to educating the public, celebrating natural resource protection, and honoring the fallen heroes who lost their lives in the line of duty. In this episode, we speak with board members Tom Caifa and Sheila Paquette about this incredible one-of-a-kind facility.   Our Sponsors:  Thin Green Line Podcast Don Noyes Chevrolet Sovereign Sportsman Solutions “A Cowboy in the Woods” Book Hunt of a Lifetime Maine's Operation Game Thief Wildlife Heritage Foundation of NH International Wildlife Crimestoppers Here’s what we discuss: The term “game warden” NAWEOA rebranding to International Game Warden Association NAGW Museum was first conceived in the 80s US states and Canadian provinces contributed Museum was completed in 2005 The International Peace Garden Passports are required  Past board members laid the foundations Fundraising is key to the museum’s continued success The NAWEOA 5K Torch Run  Torch Run began in 2000 The Run/Walk today is a family event NAWEOA now has over 9000 members Moose permit and other raffles Annual golf tournament in Manitoba Museum highlights Cabins are available to rent year-round RV parking and camping Museum is open May – September Donate to the NAGW Museum Credits Hosts: Wayne Saunders and John Nores Producer: Jay Ammann Art & Design: Ashley Hannett Research / Content Coordinator: Stacey DesRoches Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Spotify Amazon Google Waypoint Stitcher TuneIn Megaphone Find More Here: Website Warden’s Watch / TGL Store Facebook Facebook Fan Page Instagram Twitter YouTube RSS Learn more about your ad choices.
