She was the first female Regional Director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, a two-time Conservation Director of B.A.S.S., and an integral part of the Southern Division AFS Black Bass Conservation Committee. Along the way, she served as a mentor to many and a revered colleague to countless others.<\/p>\n<p>As a tribute to Noreen\u2019s impact on our careers and lives and for the good of the resources she helped conserve, a group of her friends and colleagues are establishing a scholarship in her memory. This scholarship will go to a female student working toward a career in fisheries conservation and\/or management. In the coming months, we will develop an application process and plan to award this scholarship at the annual meeting of the Southern Division of the American Fisheries Society. The Division\u2019s Black Bass Conservation Committee will be administering the scholarship and is currently accepting tax-deductible donations in an effort to build an endowment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Please donate now by credit card:<\/strong><\/p>\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=JAMQKVXXV3VMG\" method=\"post\" target=\"_top\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/form>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Or send checks payable to:<\/strong><br \/>\nBlack Bass Conservation Committee<br \/>\nc\/o Joey Slaughter<br \/>\n2480 Maner Road SE<br \/>\nAtlanta, GA 30339<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please contact Gene Gilliland at <a href=\"mailto:ggilliland@bassmaster.com\" target=\"_blank\">ggilliland@bassmaster.com<\/a>.
