Bylaws
Laws and Regulations Chair Phil Bonafide passed out copies of

take the time to review the material and make suggestions for
changes so that we may include every necessary change.

are running for four Directors positions; Chet Cilley will be
looking for reelection as Treasurer; and going for another term
as Second Vice President is none other than overachiever Paul

Guest Speaker
Sr. Member Ed Merski introduced Heritage Resource Specialist
Karl G. Roenke, U.S.D.A. Forest Service, White Mountain National
Forest, to the club. The White Mtn. National Forest, 800 acres,
was established in 1918 when it was purchased from private owners.
Roenke's slide presentation outlined their archaeological efforts
in the area where they search old homesteads and cellar holes
for relics dating back to Paleo-Indian times. One of their ongoing
excavations is at the Colbath House off the Kancamaugus Highway.
