REMINDER
CAMBA ANNUAL MEETING, WORK DAY & COOK OUT
SATURDAY, OCT. 13
Mark you calendar for Saturday, October 13 - for a full day of CAMBA activities. The day will start at 9:00 a.m. at Mosquito Brook Trail Head with a few hours of finish work on the newest singletrack trail.
Following the trail work, for those interested there will be a short ride. A ride will also be available for CAMBA Kids participants from this past summer as well as any other young riders who'd like to join in. The Kids ride will be at Hatchery Creek Park.
After riding, CAMBA will host a lunch of brats and beverages at the Hatchery Creek Pavilion. The CAMBA annual meeting will wrap up the day at 1:30. At the annual meeting we will be electing a slate of directors. All members in good standing should already have received information on the candidates. The balance of the meeting will consist of reports from the executive director and various committees as well as an open discussion.
We hope you can join us as we begin to wind down the season.
CHAIN SAW CERTIFICATION CLASS TO BE OFFERED
CAMBA, in conjunction with the U.S. Forest Service will be offering a chainsaw certification class on Friday and Saturday, November 2 and 3. Chainsaw certification is required of anyone operating a chainsaw while performing volunteer work on the National Forest. The class will cover general operation of a chainsaw, maintenance, safety considerations and field work including limbing and bucking as well as possibly felling.
To be fully certified one will also need to take basic first aid and CPR.
The class will be held at the U.S. Forest Service office in Hayward. Participants may bring their own saw, or a saw will be provided. Other equipment needed includes chaps, hearing and eye projection and a helmet. If you do not own any of this gear, it will be provided for the class.
If you are interested in participating in the class, please contact Ron Bergin at 798-3599 or camba@cheqnet.net by Friday, October 26.
