BCHWNC Members Meeting Feb. 6th
We had a great turnout at the Feb. meeting and we signed up 5 new members.Two of our members were elected to serve on the NC Board of Directors,
Carol Dilley and Karen Beckwith.
We  got names of those members interested in chainsaw certification in the event slots become available. Ray Hannah is working on getting a class scheduled through the state BCH and hopefully there will be room for 2 of our members to participate. If you are interested and we don't have your name on the list please contact us.
We decided to co-host a coggins clinic along with Graham County Co-op Extension Agency and Sweetwater Feeds in Robbinsville. Information about the clinic is posted in the Special Announcements. This will be great exposure for our chapter. We plan on having a information / fundraising booth. On Saturday we will be selling BBQ and soft drinks. If you are able to volunteer to help  with the booth ,parking, ect. Please contact Amanda or Becky.
