CONSERVATION DIGEST MAKES GREAT GIFT

PIERRE – That cliché of "finding the gift that keeps on giving" can be attained this year by giving a gift subscription to the South Dakota Conservation Digest. 

Currently, 2002 Conservation Digest Calendars are available, and that’s a great place to start a gift subscription.

"Starting with the calendar and continuing throughout the year, subscribers can be completely immersed in fantastic photography, interesting stories, outdoor news and notes and many other additions available only in the magazine," said Lee Harstad, Conservation Digest editor." It brings South Dakota’s great outdoors into your home, and is a must for anyone with even a hint of enthusiasm for the outdoors. It really is a gift that can be enjoyed throughout the year."

An annual, six-issue subscription of the bimonthly publication costs only $5. A three-year subscription is an even better bargain at $12. As an added bonus, the final edition of each year is the popular Game, Fish and Parks calendar.

To order a gift subscription or a subscription of your own, visit the Game, Fish and Parks Web site at www.state.sd.us/gfp/DivisionWildlife/Digest.htm or send the recipient's name and address along with payment to Conservation Digest, Game, Fish and Parks, 412 West Missouri, Pierre, S.D. 57501. The subscription will begin with the first issue of 2002. For more information, call (605) 773-3485.
