The McKenzie River Guides Association presented Tpr. Boyd with a letter of recognition for his outstanding service and activities in the McKenzie River area. The award was presented by association president Doug Caven at the association’s pre-season meeting in Leaburg. The MRGA appreciates Trp Boyd’s commitment to enforcement of regulations and safety on the McKenzie River along with his pre-season efforts at our sponsored boat rodeo and boat show to inspect the boats of both guides and recreational boat owners.
