EENC's Central Section is making plans for 2007 gatherings. We've set dates for
two canoeing trips on the Dan River - led by Tom Shepard.
Mark your calendar for Saturday, April 14, and Saturday, September 15. More details
will come by email. You can get your name on the list now by emailing Mickey
at sorrell@email.unc.edu.
Also in the works is a return trip to Fort Bragg for banding Red Cockaded Woodpecker
nestlings. This will probably be one Saturday in early May, but we will have
very short notice, so make sure I know of your interest. Those of us who had
this experience last year can highly recommend this trip.
Still to plan are trips to Hanging Rock, the NC Museum of Art Park, and Morehead
Planetarium. Is your membership current? That will keep you on the list for these
exciting adventures.

Check your emails and the EENC web site for more information
on activities and dates of Western Section gatherings.
There will also be plenty of opportunities for EENC's Western
Section members to get involved with the 2007 conference
coming to the Lutheridge Conference Center in Arden, this
fall. I'll keep you posted on activities prior to and during
the conference. Questions? Contact me by email. Please
make sure your membership is current so we can keep you
in the loop!

Welcome to all our new Eastern Section members – each
one of you is a welcomed addition to our community. I'm
looking forward to meeting all of you (and seeing other
familiar faces) at the spring section gathering Pettigrew State
Park on April 28 from 12:00-3:00
p.m. Bring your friends and family
(it's free!) for an eco-friendly lunch and leisurely hike. Your
guests will learn more about Native Americans and their
use of the atlatl, or throwing stick, while we gather for
a quick meeting. Stay for the afternoon, or bring
your tent and stay at the park. Either way, it’s
time to get out and enjoy our wonderful state! Please contact
me by April 20th to let me know how many we can count on
for our activities.
