Got this in an email today. Kind of debunks the hands in the cookie jar theory. Sounds like Keck and the others are apparently not thieves.
Dear NWTF Volunteers, National Board Members, Sponsors and Partners,
The last week has been a time of transition for the National Wild Turkey Federation, and we appreciate everyone"™s patience during this effort.
As NWTF"™s family pulled together to manage this period of change, our brief inward focus allowed speculation to fill the information gap. Thus, we want to take this opportunity to clarify some important points.
First, the NWTF annually undergoes an audit of its financial statements by a certified public accounting firm. The conclusion of the most recent audit, as has been the case with past audits, is the organization"™s statements of position and activities received the highest level of opinion possible on their accuracy.
In addition, no allegations of criminal activity have been made.
While the organization has undergone change, it"™s still made up of more than a half million of the most passionate and dedicated volunteers as well as our amazingly supportive and generous partners and sponsors. Because of all these wonderful people, we"™re an organization that will emerge from this and move forward into an era of conservation success. We hope you"™ll take that journey with us.
Respectfully,
Peggy Anne Vallery
NWTF President
