"Trapping for the Cure"

In the summer of 2007 the Maryland Fur Trapper's Board of Directors voted to expand their current community service program by initiating a charitable fund raising program in support of Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Other long standing community service programs include sponsorship of the Miss Maryland Program, as well as scholarships and training programs for members and non-members.
