December Meeting
The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, December 1st at 7:00 pm in the Tensaw Theater at Five Rivers.
Amanda Cox, Engineer with Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding , is bringing a cypress strip 12' canoe that she is in the process of building. Amanda is an expert in wood construction and is using a very unique technique to build this canoe. Come look at this canoe and hear the details from Amanda on its construction! Also, Rob Nykvist will give us an overview of the excellent web resources he has developed on Local Launch Sites in our area.
