Hi Mike and Cliff,

We didn’t get as many new volunteers for the Doc Long Hut as I had hoped (only 1) but we are excited to host an opening day for it along with a Forest Therapy walk on May 3rd. We are registered through the GoToForest initiative and celebrating May the Forest Be With You (May 4th) GotoForest! is an annual worldwide event held around May 4th (Japan's Greenery Day), encouraging people to connect with nature through, often through guided mindful forest bathing walks.

Are you back in town yet Mike? Hope you have had another fun adventure!

Do you think anyone else from FOSM would like to come out for a few hours?



Thanks,
Kerry J
