Thursday morning, July 8, the commissioners will hear updates on legislative proposals, outfitted waterfowl and turkey hunts, the Farragut Range and on the 2010 wolf hunting season. Following an executive session at the end of the day Thursday, commissioners will attend a barbecue at Gene Day Pond in Osburn sponsored by Shoshone County Sportsman's Association. The event is free and open to the public. This is an opportunity for people to meet, greet and eat with their fish and game commissioner.
