Allegheny SAF 2021 Annual Winter Meeting to Be Virtual

In light of current events and our inability to meet in person, the Allegheny Society of American Foresters will host our Annual Meeting “virtually on Zoom” on the evening of Wednesday, March 10, 2021, beginning at 6:30 pm. This will serve as our annual business meeting, with the intended audience being our entire Allegheny SAF membership, similar to the meetings that we typically hold on Friday mornings during our normal annual Winter Meetings. This will also be our opportunity to present awards, recognitions, and other items. Please save the date and plan to attend if you are able.

The Zoom meeting link will be provided to our membership prior to the event.

Thank you all, and I look forward to seeing everyone on March 10.
