Mike:
I would like to personally invite you to participate in the planting of longleaf pine trees as outlined under the events calendar dated February 13, 2010. This is a Saturday outing and will involve a drive to Southern Pines, NC located in the Sandhills of NC. There will be a similar opportunity on the following two Saturdays Feb 20 and Feb 27. I am working to help organize as large of a turn-out as possible. This event is being sponsored by The Nature Conservancy of North Carolina and will give all participants a first hand look at the longleaf pine ecosystem and an opportunity to offset part of our carbon footprint. You can call me at (980) 875-8900 for more details.
I'm actually in the HAWK group and live in south Charlotte. I met some of your folks at the seminar we had in June. I was impressed with the projects they spoke of. I'd like to try some areas over your way for kayaking sometime. If you have any site suggestions, please let me know.
Welcome, Mike! Glad to have you join the network. I hope you find useful information here and will find opportunities to help North Carolina's wildlife and wild places.
