RE: Area 3 meeting
Date: October 10, 2025
There will be an Area 3 meeting in Buckhannon on November 6, 2025, at 11:30 AM. The meeting will be held at the Weyerhaeuser Buckhannon facility, and the address is below. Legislators from the area will be invited and we will be discussing forestry issues and the upcoming legislative session. The event will begin with a Weyerhaeuser/WVFA briefing, box lunch, tour of the plant, and then a closing question and answer session.
This is a good opportunity for WVFA members to discuss current issues with legislators and with WVFA.
Lunch will be complementary so bring your appetite and bring a friend. All that we ask is for you to RSVP, so we have an idea of the number attending. We will be seeking SAF credits, as well.
Please see the agenda below.
Please RSVP to Bob Boyles, bob@wvfa.org or Gabrielle Hedges, gabrielle@wvfa.org
We hope that you can show support for the forestry community and attend this meeting. If you have questions, contact bob@wvfa.org or by calling 304-532-6568 or Ed Kraynok at kraynok2@aol.com.
