THE ARCHAEOLOGIST Vol. 6, June, 2013 excerpts.

President’s Message:

I hope everyone is enjoying the beginning of summer. Please keep in mind there are no monthly chapter meetings during July and August. However, the annual chapter picnic is scheduled for Sunday, July 14, 2013 at Shannen Park. I hope you can make it. Gary will be there flintknapping, and we will also have to atlatl range set up. If you plan on going to the picnic please read the instructions below.

Unfortunately our daughter scheduled our youngest granddaughter’s baptism in Buffalo on Saturday, June 22^nd, the day after our scheduled June meeting. Therefore Priscilla and I will not be attending the June meeting. Stephanie will run the meeting and Doc Bayne will be our speaker on "Making Iron."

I hope to see you at the picnic.

Dave
