WVFA Fall 2018

www.wvfa.org Fall 2018 |  West Virginia Forestry Association Mountain State Forestry 5 I t is my pleasure to inform you that we have completed a major step in beginning a new era for WVFA. Through the leadership of your Board of Directors and the Association staff, WVFA is now the owner of a new office location at 2008 Quarrier Street, Charleston, WV 25311. In addition, the Ripley office location has been sold and our organization has moved; building refurbishments and utility connections are on-going, at this writing. Our new telephone number is: 681-265-5019. I would also like to reiterate my message from our last edition: That is, if your organization advertises, please seriously consider advertising in this magazine. It literally pays for all that you see here, posting and other behind the scenes publishing requirements. On another front, we have now concluded another successful annual conference at Canaan Resort and Conference Center, near Davis, and I want to use the remainder of my allotted space to thank the following: Ted Harriman Camp Sponsors Harriman Sisters • Forest Land Group • Ralph & Barb McWhorter • Pardee & Resources Pierson Lumber • Huffman Logging • Robert & Kora Grist • Rick Sypolt • WVFA The Assoc. of Consulting Foresters • WPPLP • Jerry Waybright • William McDonald Golf Tournament Sponsors AFP • WV Split Rail • Stella Jones • WPPLP • Interstate Hardwoods • AWP • Tanner Lumber Weyerhaeuser • Farm Credit • Jim C.
