JEFFERSON CITY--Dave Murphy, a former executive with the National Wild Turkey Federation, has been chosen to replace Denny Ballard as executive director of the Conservation Federation of Missouri (CFM).

Murphy worked as the Turkey Federation's regional director for 10 years before taking over as the CFM's director June 1. CFM President Gary Van De Velde said farewell to Ballard and greeted incoming director Murphy in a written statement.

"Under Mr. Ballard's leadership over the past four years, the federation implemented many progressive changes, and we wish him much success in his new position. Mr. Murphy is a well-know conservationist. The Federation membership looks forward to advancing Missouri's resource conservation efforts with Dave's leadership."

Ballard has accepted a job as director of the newly formed Land Learning Foundation, which teaches youths, women and the disabled how to hunt, fish, trap and shoot.

The CFM is Missouri's oldest and largest citizen conservation group, with 25,000 members statewide. For more information, contact CFM, 728 W. Main Street, Jefferson City, 65101, phone 800/575-2322.
