Q. How long have you been with Outdoor News? A. I have been with Outdoor News since October 1998. The time has flown, and I have seen many changes in my life over 20-plus years, but one of the few things that has remained constant is my job. Q.

Hey folks, In the spirit of more communication since most of you are working from home, here’s an internal-use-only e-newsletter. Lots of things cooking so this first-ever edition could be even longer, but in the spirit of brevity, we’re not going to cover everything in January.
