1 HAZARD CAMPBELL TRIBUTE WEEKEND APRIL 30 TH - MAY 1 ST, 2010 Look for your invitation on or about March 1st!
2 A BIOGRAPHY OF HAZARD CAMPBELL FRIEND OF THE DUCKS Leadership, dedication and involvement are attributes that have made Hazard the man we admire today. His untiring efforts for the community and the environment throughout his lifetime have been an inspiration to all who know him. A native of Buffalo, New York, he has touched the lives of many through his contributions to many organizations such as the Boys Club of Buffalo, The Seymour Knox Foundation, Elmwood-Franklin School, Forest Lawn Cemetary and most notably, Ducks Unlimited. Since becoming a member of Ducks Unlimited in 1956 and a sponsor in 1959, Hazard has been involved in almost every aspect of the organization. He became the Western New York Area Chairman (1970), was elected a National Trustee (1973), and was one of the founders of the first Canadian Chapters (1974). He went on to become Regional Vice President Atlantic Flyway (1976), was elected to the DU Canada Board (1978), became Senior Vice President Atlantic Flyway (1981), and a member of the Ducks Unlimited Foundation Board (Wetlands America Trust ) and the Executive Committee of DU Canada (1984). As the Chairman of the Executive Committee of Ducks Unlimited, Inc., and serving as the organizations representative, he delivered a speech at the U.S. Interior Department s reception commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Federal Duck Stamp program (1984) and attended the White House Rose Garden ceremony with President Ronald Reagan. From 1986 to 1987 Hazard served as President of Ducks Unlimited, Inc., Chairman of the Board of Directors , President of the DU Foundation , and is presently serving on the Emeritus Board of Wetlands America Trust, the DU Inc. Emeritus Board, DUC Board and the DU Canada Habitat and Conservation Committee. He also currently serves as a member of the board of the Waterfowl Research Foundation. Hazard has devoted thousands of hours to the conservation of wetlands and waterfowl. For his efforts, we pay tribute and give thanks for his commitment, friendship, guidance and assistance. He has made our world and the world of our children a better place to live.

4 Hazard has selected the opportunities highlighted in this brochure to be supported by this tribute (Lake Ontario, Wetlands for Tomorrow and Rescue The Duck Factory). All gifts and pledges from this effort will be equally utilized to support the conservation programs for the Wetlands for Tomorrow campaigns of DU Inc. and DUC. LAKE ONTARIO INITIATIVE The Lake Ontario watershed encompasses the low-lying lake plain of New York and is an important breeding, migration and staging area for waterfowl in the Northeast. Historically dominated by a forested ecosystem with extensive coastal marshes, the area has lost approximately 70% of its wetlands to agriculture and urban sprawl and pollution has degraded water quality. There are four areas of concentration within the priority area: The St. Lawrence Valley, where the focus is conservation of wetland and grassland habitats, is an important breeding area for mallards, blue-winged teal, American black ducks, and Canada geese. It is an important migratory corridor for American black ducks, scaup, canvasbacks, and Canada geese. The lake and the river are major fall staging areas for many species of divers and sea ducks. Inland areas provide critical spring migration habitat in the form of temporary sheet water. In the Montezuma Wetland Complex, Ducks Unlimited restores and protects muck land soils to reduce habitat fragmentation and increase the quality and quantity of wetlands. Montezuma is an important staging area within the Atlantic flyway that attracts as many as 1 million ducks and geese during spring and fall migration.
5 Restoring wetlands and buffers on private property within the Tonawanda-Iroquois- Oak Orchard Complex will improve water quality, reduce fragmentation, and increase waterfowl habitat. This state/federal complex is a staging and migration area for more than 250,000 waterfowl annually and supports significant wood duck and mallard production. Emergent wetlands provide migration and production habitat for many declining marsh bird species. The open water and near-shore wetlands and associated upland habitats of the Lake Champlain Basin are widely recognized as a historically significant wetland complex for waterfowl and other migratory birds. More than 30 species of ducks, geese and swans depend on this important ecosystem during migration and to a lesser degree for breeding in the spring and summer. Peak waterfowl populations during migration periods reach the tens of thousands as birds gather to feed and rest before heading further south along the Atlantic coast to traditional wintering areas. DU s focus here is to restore degraded wetlands to improve waterfowl habitat and water quality of the lake.
6 DU Canada Initiative The DU Canada Wetlands for Tomorrow Campaign (DUC WFT) is an ambitious fundraising effort to secure the future of Canada s wetlands for waterfowl. The DUC WFT Campaign is focused on five strategic activities in Canada: Habitat conservation is critical due to the increasing risks and dramatic losses wetlands and waterfowl face. DUC s direct conservation program efforts are targeted specifically at critically at-risk habitats in our conservation priority areas to ensure a minimum habitat base for waterfowl populations. Scientifi c research is instrumental in identifying these critical habitats and providing the information needed to ensure the future of our waterfowl and wetlands. Public Policy allows the opportunity to influence wetland habitat conservation on a broad scale so that our society will recognize and protect wetlands for the values that they provide. Extension programs allow DUC to involve and communicate with landowners to create powerful allies for impacting the landscape in a sustainable manner. Education to instill a deep understanding and appreciation of the importance of wetland ecosystems. The future of our wetlands depends upon how well the next generation understands the urgent need to continue the important work we have begun. In order for DUC to achieve its vision in today s world, we will need to strengthen DUC s capacity to design, support and deliver increasingly complex conservation programs that meet the challenges facing continental waterfowl populations and WFT is a big step in that direction. The DUC Wetlands for Tomorrow campaign commenced on April 1, 2005, with an end target of March 31, As of January 2010 we have raised $1.61 billion continentally and $432 million in Canada.
7 RESCUE THE DUCK FACTORY INITIATIVE C. Pyle USFWS North America s most important waterfowl breeding habitat is being plowed under on a massive scale. Surging global demands for food, federal mandates for cornbased ethanol production and the current Farm Bill are encouraging cultivation of every available acre. Act Now To Help DU Save Vital Prairie Breeding Habitats The Rescue the Duck Factory initiative has become a priority for Ducks Unlimited because of new pressures on landowners within the Prairie Pothole Region (PPR). The funds raised through this campaign will be directed toward perpetual land easements on native grasslands in the PPR, also known as the duck factory. The Opportunity is Now We are making a difference thanks to supporters like you. So far, we ve rescued 67,000 acres, but we must do more. At an average per acre cost of $360, your contribution to this campaign will allow DU to purchase easements in the Prairie Pothole Region that will permanently protect this vital habitat for future generations. The Goal Our vision is wetlands sufficient to fill the skies with waterfowl today, tomorrow and forever. With your gift we can make this goal a reality. This prairie acreage is vital to North American waterfowl production, and it s crucial that we act now. The decisions we make in the duck factory right now will directly affect waterfowl populations and our waterfowl hunting heritage for future generations.
