Some have asked me to post the information from our November BCOS meeting "persimmon talk". For any who are interested you can access that powerpoint/presentation at https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1THDQ36Cwzt7hAOfTh1wZGXgQtUuiZbQQ/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=106736864789559648706&rtpof=true&sd=true Thanks!

Hi BCOS , This Friday , April 22, we are doing trail maintenance at the OWL Center. We are cleaning up some old trails making them usable for the summer students. We will need to weed whack some areas, blow off the trail and general light picking up the paths. Should be done by 1 PM. We will meet at 9 AM on the Outdoor Wilderness Learning Center office. That is the house about 400 yards from the entrance. Bring gloves , drinks and maybe a snack. If you have a blower and weed eater please bring them. To get to the OWL, take I-20 to the #78 exit east of Bossier. Turn left on RT 563 and go about 7 miles north, The OWL will be the horse ranch on the right. Hope to see many of you there. It's about 1 hour from Bossier. Have a great day. Wayne Kiefer 318-676-9568
