Our 1st meeting of the new year will be our annual potluck supper at Stone Lodge in Stone State Park at
6:00 P.M. Bring a dish to share and your own table service. Coffee, iced tea, and lemonade will be provided. The program will
be presented by Chris Anderson, Resource Naturalist with the Woodbury County Conservation Board. Chris will
be doing a presentation called "Bushcraft: The philosophy and practice of sustainable outdoors skills". He
will discuss the evolution of outdoor recreation from heavy impact outdoor recreation, to modern leave-no-trace recreation,
and then he will put forth the theory of positive impact outdoor recreation which blends positives from both traditional,
and modern outdoor recreation. Literature related to the topic will be on display, as well as some homemade/recycled
equipment.
