The Friends of Hullett have two full time employees, and as grants allow, a number of summer students. In this section you will learn more about the employees and their roles at Hullett Marsh.
Scott Austin: Marsh Manager
After graduating as a Fish & Wildlife Technician from Fleming College, Scott has
since spent his entire career in the outdoor field. He has been a trapper, fishing
guide, as well as gaining eight years of experience of operating a waterfowl guiding
business in Huron County. He served as treasurer and a founding FOH Board of
Directors in the late 1990's. He also spent 15 years with MNRF gathering data on
the southern Lake Huron fishery before owning and operating Bayfield Fish &
Seafood. After looking for something new, Scott has come home, back to his
educational background managing the HPWA with acquired business skills and a passion for the future of the marsh. Scott is in his 12th year as the FOH manager and enjoys the opportunities he gets to work with volunteers and assisting in developing young staff members.
