We kicked off our 1st presentation of Campfire Confessions, real stories from the Siskiyou backcountry. The next is March 18.
I've been working with a couple of Southern Oregon University interns on a secret project in the Illinois Valley. They're restoring a historic trail that we'll unveil when finished.
We've received good response from graduating high school seniors for our scholarship program. There is enough money in the fund for 4.5 scholarships. We'd like to provide 5-8 students this outstanding opportunity to continue their education while developing valuable skills.
Our full calendar is not out yet -- some dates are stewing on my office wall until we hear back on a couple of critical grants. We'll have a lot more trips coming out in the Soda Mountain Wilderness Area.
