Paul Morro Nominated
Wednesday, February 07, 2007
Our very own Paul Morrow was nominated as one of the Heroes of Conservation. He is known by many as "Doc" and considered the backbone of habitat in Ingham County. He has volunteered with Ducks Unlimited, The Ruffed Grouse Society, and PF. Now, anybody that knows Paul will realize that actually getting him to New York is a challenge in itself; because Paul in New York is like an elevator in an outhouse, it just doesn't belong. Paul feels most comfortable in the outdoors improving habitat or hunting with his dog Kody, not in New York dodging Taxi's.
