FAWN Postponed

The Winston County Natural Resources Council met Tuesday, September 14, 2021, at Grant Hayes' farm in Addison for the feral hog workshop. Present were Zack Brannon, Mike Henshaw, Casey Hammack, Jamie Seagrove, Mark Finley and P.J. Gossett. The only business conducted consisted of the upcoming Forestry Awareness Week Now program usually scheduled in October in conjuction with sixth grade classes throughout the county. Due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic regarding the schools, Zack made a suggestion to postpone FAWN until the spring. It was agreed to postpone the event. In case the spring is not a good choice either, the students can still participate remotely by watching the videos created last year. The next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, October 21, 2021, at 9 a.m. The location has not been confirmed, though the meeting will likely take place at the Houston Recreation Area.
