Holiday greetings to all my friends and family!
Our fall activities have been quite the success! Thank you to all the organizers and volunteers who have contributed to our plant propagation work, sales events, chapter meetings, and online publications, and to the many fun-seeking participants who have joined our field trips.
This really is my favorite time of the year! It’s great weather to get out and view the abundance of the fall salmon run on Clear Creek; I’ve seen many species of mushrooms over the past few weeks; and the falling leaves are a sight to see! As the nights grow longer, it will soon be time for the smells of baking bread and delicious soup!
I look forward to time indoors with family, celebrating the holidays, reading good books by a cozy fire . . . these are the things that bring me joy after the long, hot summer months.
Look for the Beaver Super Moon on November 5, 2025, named for the time of year when beavers begin preparing for winter!
As the days grow shorter, so does my message! Have a great Thanksgiving Day, my friends! ~Jeremey Kelley, President
