I will make every effort to keep this site current with information that is pertinent to the natural resources professional. This site should also serve as a forum for you, providing an open dialog among members, regarding forestry related issues or topics that you feel are important.

Back on the Trail... Trail Blazer that is!!!

Hello Pisgah Chapter Members!

Can you believe that it is already August? I hope that all of you have been having a great summer and are ready for an awesome Pisgah Chapter Meeting!!!!! Our spring meeting at Warren Wilson was a great success and the students did an excellent job putting together a wonderful tour of their school forest.
This Quarter’s meeting will be held at LaPaz Restaurant on August 26, 2008 at 6:30 PM... What better way to spice up the summer with some wonderful Mexican food in our own private dinning room (some of you may remember the meeting at Buffalo Wild Wings… WHAT? I CAN"T HEAR YOU!). Our speaker for this months meeting is Mr. Alex Comfort, Director of the Cradle of Forestry Foundation, who will discuss the joint goals of the Foundation and the USFS, in regards to the programming and management of the "Birthplace of Forestry Education". One category 1 CFE will be rewarded for attending the meeting. If you have not been to a meeting this year or have "gotten out of the habit", this is a great chance to come out and meet with your friends and collegues in WNC. See attached for meeting flyer.
