Meet John Araway Oct. 4th.

We're Back!

Summer is finally winding down which means crisp mornings, apples, and our monthly meetings are back.

Join us this Tuesday, September 26th 7pm at the DAR house on 8th Ave in Bethlehem.

While we don't have an official speaker/ topic, Kristie Fatch from Wildlands Conservancy will be on hand to discuss the project at Illicks Mill and also the Monocacy Creek assessment which is being finalized.

Pizza will be available if you are hungry, and a nice selection of donated fly tying materials will be available for purchase with a donation to the Chapter.

Hope to see you there.
