The following e-mail message was sent to WDFW Director Jeff Koenings From: Larry Nettekoven To: director@dfw.wa.gov Date: 09/09/05 Subject: satisfied hunter Dear Sir, I just wanted to take a moment to thank all involved that manage the Sinlahekin Wildlife Area. I just returned from 6 days of whitetail deer hunting in this area with my 2 sons in the early archery season. We have been hunting this area for 7 years and have watched the continuing improvement of habitat and wildlife. We were fortunate enough to harvest a whitetail buck, but that is only a bonus to the overall experience of having the privilege of hunting such a fine area. I hope that you could forward my thanks to all responsible for the managing of this area. As hunters we all should enjoy and appreciate the total experience of a hunt, and I can't tell you how great of a week that I just spent with my 2 sons doing what we all 3 truly love to do in an area like this. Thank you, Larry Nettekoven
