    The Pocahontas Strutters Chapter of the WV-NWTF really have something to strut about now. In
    fact all WV-NWTF members will be pleased to know that the National Wild Turkey Federation has
    hired Patrick "Cully" McCurdy of Marlinton, West Virginia as the new National Wild Turkey
    Federation Regional Biologist for the states of Virginia and West Virginia. Cully was the Wildlife
    Manager on Rimel WMA for the WV-DNR and has been very active in turkey savannah type work
    both on the Monongahela National Forest and the Cal Price State Forest. Culley's working
    relationship with the WV-DNR, NWTF, West Virginia Division of Forestry, and United States
    Forest Service will be instrumental in creating cooperative agreements with all agencies to benefit
    active wildlife habitat management in Virginia and West Virginia. Culley has been an NWTF
    volunteer for many years, heading the banquet committee of the Pocahontas Strutters Chapter.
    Patrick "Cully" McCurdy is one of the newest NWTF staff working toward the conservation of wild
    turkeys and the preservation of our hunting heritage.
