Notes From the Chair
We had good attendance at the February meeting. SAF members, Small Woodland members, and a few guests totaled about 24. Dr. David Shaw of the Wind River Canopy Crane Project gave an interesting presentation on forest canopy research.
I don't have the latest news from OSAF because I wasn't able to attend the last State Executive meeting on February 12. If you are so inclined, be sure to sign up for a volunteer assignment at the SAF National meeting being held this September in Portland. Both Dennis Carlson and I have the sign up forms.
Hope to see you at our next meeting on March 18.
