HEARTWOOD FOREST COUNCIL
Save
the date for the 18th Annual Heartwood Forest Council, Memorial Day
Weekend, May 23-26, 2008, to be held at Boy Scout Camp Oyo in the Shawnee State
Forest near Portsmouth, Ohio. The Voices for the Forest is co-hosting and
sponsoring this magnificent event.
The
Heartwood Forest Council is the largest annual gathering of citizens from
across the Eastern, Midwestern, and Southern United States who care about the
health and well-being of our nation’s forests. This will be the second time
this event has taken place in Ohio. We will focus on threats to our region and
to human and community health, in an atmosphere of collaboration designed to
form stronger personal and organizational connections.
You
will also learn about the history of the Ohio River Valley, the Shawnee
Indians, the flora and fauna of Shawnee State Forest as well as the threats
facing Ohio’s most abused state forest.
We
hope to see you there! For more information, pleases visit the Heartwood Forest Council’s website.
