?It is truly an honor to serve in this position,? said Camuso. ?It is an incredible opportunity to continue the great work we are doing in Maine and elevate it to a national scale, as well as give Maine a stronger voice in national conservation initiatives.?

Maine has become a leader in outdoor recreation and communication.

Camuso is involved with a number of other national conservation initiatives, as she serves as chair of AFWA?s Bird Conservation Committee, co-chair of the North American Bird Conservation Initiative, vice chair of the National Conservation Leadership Institute and she also is vice president of the North East Association of Fish and Wildlife agencies.
