Paddison Memorial Branch Library

June Meeting Agenda:
- Hazards in the Woods: A discussion on safety while foraging; ticks and buggers alike, snakes, weather, and general wilderness safety.
- Upcoming Piedmont Foray: Our local June foray will be held on Saturday June 20th with location to be announced at meeting and also through email. Rain is in the forecast, so we hope for fruiting fungi!
- Drawing for NAMA Yoop! - You must be present at the June 16 meeting to potentially win the scholarship. North American Mycological Association (NAMA) has offered our club a scholarship to their annual regional foray, August 27 - 30 in Marquette, Michigan in the Upper Peninsula (UP=Yoop), which is an incredibly gorgeous region. (Thanks to Corrine, our new president, for applying for it!) The scholarship ticket includes event access, 3 nights at the staff hotel near the event, a complimentary official foray t-shirt and swag bag, catered lunches and dinners during the event, and socials with mushroom tastings, hors d'oeuvres and mixology beverages, plus 3 evening keynote presentations, access to all 18 lectures, all 14 guided forays to collect wild mushrooms in the forest as well as 6 self-guided forays to pre-scouted locations, and the twilight yooperlite collection walk. Workshops are available for an extra $25 each. Scholarship recipient does have to pay for travel to/from the event. This is the ultimate vacation for true mushroom nerds, beginner or advanced.
