Main Speaker:  David Brower    

Dave Brower grew up in Wyoming, Michigan where he inherited his love for the outdoors from his grandfather.  Though he lived in the suburbs of Grand Rapids, he honed his fishing and hunting skills in a wild area filled with gravel pits and marshes within walking distance of his home.

Dave stays involved in the outdoors year around with Spring beaver trapping and turkey hunting, Summer fishing, Fall & Winter trapping, pheasant and deer hunting.

Dave is a graduate of Western Michigan University with a degree in education.  He spent two years in the Army where he answered God's call to ministry.  He graduated from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in 1976 and served three churches in Michigan.  Dave now serves as Pastor of First Reformed Church in Sheldon, IA.
