“We are very excited to premiere season 6 of DU Films,” said DU Acting Chief of Marketing and Communications James Powell. “Each of the six DU Films features waterfowling adventure, breathtaking scenery and passionate volunteers who share a common goal of wetlands and waterfowl conservation. The stories we tell get to the heart of what it means to be a DU volunteer.”
