NEWS AND NOTICES!!

Saturday, June 23, 1:00. Friends of Willard Brook Annual Meeting. Spend the afternoon with Friends of Willard Brook at the

Townsend Meeting Hall of Townsend Library. We’ll start off with a 90-minute slide presentation “Reading the Forested Landscape”

by Tom Wessels. From there, we’ll head into the woods for a couple of hours starting at 2:45, to practice what we learned by trying to

figure out the forest’s history. Afterwards, settle down to a hearty potluck supper. We’ll also have a Chinese auction.
