for 2014-15 season
DOVER (Sept. 18, 2014) – DNREC’s Division of Fish and Wildlife today announced the list of private butcher shops accepting donated deer for processing for the state’s Sportsmen Against Hunger Program during the 2014-2015 Delaware deer hunting season. All donated venison will be distributed to charitable groups participating in the program.
Last year, 21,223 pounds of venison from 645 deer donated by hunters was divided among 31 food pantries and shelters statewide, providing more than 100,000 meals for hungry Delawareans. Since it began in 1992, the Division of Fish and Wildlife’s Sportsmen Against Hunger program has provided more than 1.7 million meals for needy Delawareans.
Successful hunters can take their deer directly to any of the participating private butcher shops found throughout the state, or they may drop off their deer at any of the DNREC-maintained walk-in coolers, both listed below.

![\"Wisconsin](\"http://www.citizensforethics.org/page/-/images/worst_governors/headshots/Wisconsin_Walker_Scott.jpg\" "\\"Wisconsin")
Washington, D.C.—CREW’s voters already named Wisconsin’s Scott Walker the Worst Governor in America last year, but the Badger State Republican still found a way to sink lower. As evidence piles up suggesting that the governor and his aides illegally coordinated with outside groups to beat a recall effort, Gov. Walker’s political operation once again finds itself in the crosshairs of a criminal investigation. For apparently failing to learn his lesson after the first time CREW called him out, Gov. Walker earned the title of August’s Scoundrel of the Month.
Prosecutors in Wisconsin are investigating whether Gov. Walker and his staff illegally circumvented the state’s campaign contribution limits by coordinating campaign activity with outside groups during a 2012 recall election. Gov. Walker’s allies have repeatedly condemned the investigation as a partisan witch hunt by the state’s Democrats. Documents released last month, however, show Gov. Walker and his aides were deeply involved in fundraising for groups supporting his campaign, especially the Wisconsin Club for Growth. Aides to the governor advised him to solicit donations to the group from major Republican donors, including the Koch brothers and Sheldon Adelson.

Working with the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security and Protection and a state climatologist, the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office has secured grants totaling $150,000 for weather monitoring stations to track the direction of toxic gas releases from rail accidents like the vinyl chloride leak in a November 2012 derailment in Paulsboro NJ.
Knowing which way the wind is blowing and at what speed can be critically important in the event a gas cloud forms over a populated area, GCPO critical infrastructure coordinator Bill Donovan said in a 9/17 presentation about the funding.
