Describe in more detail any volunteer activity that was particularly meaningful to you.:
Three Small Woodlands Assn projects:
* In January, two of us spoke to the local Oregon Hunters Assn meeting about OSWA and landowner priorities and concerns.
* Since May, our chapter has put out 3 newsletters in an effort to keep in touch with members at a time when we cannot meet in person. I am a small part of that effort.
* This fall, the newsletter team working with our new Chapter president developed a mailing to send to all forest owners in the County making them aware of OSWA. OSWA has opted to partially fund this mailing as a test to see if direct mailings bring more interest in managed forests and in OSWA membership; ongoing.
