Box 1184 Helena #N-6, Helena 59601 I am an MEIC member because I am old enough to remember when Montana had the political will and administrative skill to protect our precious waters and our awesome landscape. When that will collapsed it fell to the people to protect the natural amenities we all treasure. The people were led by MEIC Jim Posewitz, author, founder of OrionThe Hunters Institute, and MEIC member since 1973
