LEE SETZER
“Man’s huberace makes us believe we are God’s equal. We straighten rivers, raze mountains, move species, and clear forests destroying God’s creation for short term rewards. We must be good stewards of all that God has given us and restore what we and past generations have broken.”
LEE SETZER grew up in Tampa, Florida, and spent his summers in the mountains of southern Appalachia. He currently lives in Boone, North Carolina where he works for the Boy Scouts of America. Lee received his undergraduate degree in Environmental Science from Lenoir-Rhyne University in Hickory, North Carolina. He has worked for Trout Unlimited and American Conservation Experience on a Conservation Corp throughout the Southeast. While in West Virginia, Lee was a survey crew leader in Monongahela National Forest, home to many of the state’s wild native brook trout. Lee is an avid outdoorsman and fisherman, with a passion for protecting, conserving, and restoring our environment. He formally served on NFC’s West Virginia board. Lee joined NFC because of our absolute focus on wild native fish, and our resource first position. He can be reached at info@nativefishcoalition.org
