annual meeting

(I am updating this because I am starting to send out the link to geographers around the county. Please scroll down for the first post and welcome)

The one event that LCGS hosts each year is the annual meeting/picnic/BBQ. This is usually held in September at a Eugene area park and is a chance to meet geographers from their various manifestations around Lane County and just enjoy a great afternoon. Hopefully with this new form of communication, we will have a chance to increase attendance and reach new people.

This summer I am leaving for seven weeks at the end of July and will be back the 19th of September. Hopefully the weather will remain as lovely as it has been through the early Fall. I will try to schedule something for one of the weekends after I return and post the schedule here. I will provide as much advance warning as I can. I will try to get one of the shelters at Alton-Baker Park reserved so that access is easier (and parking is free).

Please send me along events anything you would like the geography community in Lane County to know about. The email is at the top of the blog. Additionally, if you have opportunities for student geographers, please let me know. I have many students who would enjoy a good geography-related internship.

Enjoy the summer,
Leslie McLees
President of Lane County Geographical Society
