Erin, It was a joy visiting with your group Tuesday night at your kick off meeting of the PACT Chapter . You and the rest of your leadership group have done a wonderful job getting this group of wildlife activists together. I look forward to working with you and PACT to improve the future of wildlife together, and to have a little fun doing it. Thank you so much for stepping up as a leader. Your friends at NCWF and NWF are thrilled to have such an energetic new leader. You and your groups energy energize us.
Cheers,

This Saturday 9/13 is Big Sweep in Watauga County. I will be going with a group to Trash Can Falls to clean up. If you are interested in going please contact me at andicochran@gmail.com.

I'm thinking we will meet at 8 a.m. at Espresso News to get some caffeine flowing before the clean up, but if that doesn't work you can always just meet us at Trash Can Falls.

Thanks,
Andi

I had to delete the Boone Area Wildlife Chapter group so the web address reflected the new name. Congratulations to everybody on the leadership team.
