NLTRAPPERS

On January 13, 1977 a small but dedicated core group of western and central Newfoundland trappers met during a fur handling workshop in Deer Lake and founded what was initially known as the Newfoundland Trappers Association, eventually to become the Newfoundland and Labrador Trappers Association. The original senior executive was comprised of George Jennings of Corner Brook as President, Gerald Spencer of Glenwood as Vice-President and Bert Coish, also of Corner Brook, as Secretary-Treasurer.
