Is anyone interested in being the chapter leader for this chapter?
I will no longer be the chapter leader. If no one is interested, I will be closing this chapter in a few days.

Oh, Kristine - I am sad to see our chapter end if it comes to that. Although I don't have any interest to head a chapter at this time, I sincerely appreciate the effort you've put into it.
I haven't been on MJF much but I see where you've had some rough patches. I hope things get easier for you and your family. I believe that tough times make us stronger individuals and more appreciative of the smaller things in life.
I do wish you the best!

How do I join the chapter and what is involved in leading it? I'm a recent Ohio transplant and live in Akron.

Ohio Certified Volunteer Naturalist Training Registration deadline extended to March 15! Do you have a strong interest in your natural surroundings, a desire to sharpen your outdoor interpretation skills, and a willingness to share your knowledge with others? If so, consider becoming an Ohio State University Extension Ohio Certified Volunteer Naturalist.
Beginning in early April, Ohio Certified Volunteer Naturalist training will be offered for residents of Wood County and surrounding areas. The Ohio Certified Volunteer Naturalist program (OCVN) is a volunteer program which provides an extensive course in the natural sciences in exchange for a donation of volunteer hours to share your skills and knowledge with others through OCVN sponsored activities. The Wood County Park District OCVN program is a cooperative venture between Ohio State University Extension and the Wood County Park District.

Hi Kris,
Been on the computer too much this morning (esp. MJF) so I'll just put this all in one post to ya. I'll pm my email. Maybe when things settle down in your neck of the woods the chapter can be started back up?
I checked out the naturalist thing and they want an arm and a leg, but otherwise I'd LOVE to do this sort of thing as it's right up my alley. My daughter is not much of an outdoorsy kinda gal but she does like to take walks with me in parks, etc. and enjoys the bits (emphasis on 'bits')of knowledge I can pass on about wildlife.
Hubby bought a used 35 mm camera at a garage sale last summer and I bought him some film for it as part of his Valentine's Day. Am hoping to start getting some wildlife pics - mainly birds.
As for the neon floss, I would check the local JoAnn's in their Kid's Camp stuff that will be out soon. Often there are small kits for friendship bracelets, etc. that may have some neon floss you speak of and the cost should be minimal.
The clothesline....you know it's a topic near and dear to my heart! Love the pic you posted - I'd never in all my 50 years seen one attached to a silo like that. What a hoot. I sure love mine but see where the rope is getting a bit frayed but we've had it for over 3 years and it only set us back about $7.00.
K, I think that catches me up for now. I wish ya the best and hope we can stay in touch.
Bring Spring!
Karen
Oh, I meant to add that I saw an add in a country mag I get about someone who takes down old barns and reuses the wood. I will see if I can find it and pass the info on to you.

Thanks Karen. Any help on tearing done our barn (and if we can get a few bucks for the wood) would be great!
I tried to sign up for a mosiac glass class (a 5 x 7 project), but I was still sick. Maybe next year.
If I see any upcoming classes around here, I will try to post them here or e-mail them out.
We just had twin bucklings born here last Friday, and a buyer is coming today to look at one. Our other goat is due in a few weeks.
Thanks for checking in! :) -Kristina

I wanted to update the chapter. Before Christmas we donated $325.00 to the local food pantry and several items.
My husband's employer donated us another $300.00 check, made out to the same food pantry, so that is a total of $625.00 in cash donations. My mother continues to volunteer at the same food pantry as well.
Just sharing the good news.
