The following e-mail message was received by WDFW Director Jeff Koenings From: Dave Frame - Dayton, WA To: director@dfw.wa.gov Date: 03/02/2003 4:38 AM Subject: Excellent Game Warden in Columbia County Dr. Koenings, Director, WDFW: I am a landowner and resident of Columbia County. I would like to express my thanks to WDFW and the local Fish and Wildlife Officer, Todd Vandivert, who has been stationed in our area for a number of years. Officer Vandivert has done an outstanding job of keeping the citizens of this area posted, enforcing game laws and working with local organizations and other law enforcement departments here. We have had a rash of elk poaching in this area in recent years, but not because of lack of effort and diligence on the part of Officer Vandivert. He is much appreciated in Columbia County.
