Welcome to the Pisgah Chapter Blog

The purpose of this blog is to keep Society of American Foresters members current with Pisgah Chapter activities. 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. I hope that you take some time to be apart of this exchange. Cheers! Blair

Pisgah Chapter Blog

I have added every one to the pisgah chapter blog. Future meeting messages and activities will be sent through our chapter blog. Thank you.

I promise to keep the communication to a minimum. I know that we all probably receive too much mail. Blair

Pisgah Chapter Meeting

Well many of you might have seen our most recent trail blazer article stating that the Pisgah Chapter held its meeting on December 23rd. Well that date came and went and we did not have a meeting. I apologize for not getting us together. However, not all is lost! I know this year's APSAF meeting is a long way from the mountains of WNC but I would like to hold an informal meeting with Pisgah Chapter members following our NC Division meeting.
My two year term as chapter chair has ended. Given that we did not have a fall meeting, usually the time when elections are held, we need to do so following the APSAF meeting. We are a little out of protocol given that the new chair should be in place at the beginning of the new year. I will do everything I can to help our new chair with the transition. If you are interested in "running/serving" as a chapter chair please contact me. We have a dedicated group of chapter members who attend and have served in this position so it would be great to get some "new blood" that would be dedicated to the chapter and its members.
Our fall\winter meeting will be held on Tuesday, February 24th at LaPaz Restaurant in Asheville. Mixer will start at 6:30PM with dinner at 7:00PM. I hope to see you all there.
