CANCELLED DUE TO RAIN – Beginners Chainsaw Training
October 14, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 2:30 pm
$35 – $50
Want to learn how to use a chainsaw, but don’t know how to get started? Join TLC’s Ecologist, Megan Oropeza, and Natural Land Institute’s Director of Stewardship, Zach Grycan, to learn the basics in a hands-on way. Participants will be introduced to protective equipment, basic chainsaw maintenance, and the development of technique to safely fell a tree and cut it up. Participants are welcome to bring their own protective equipment such as leather gloves, safety glasses, earplugs, and chaps, but we will have some for people to use during the class as well. This class is tailored for beginners who have never used a chainsaw. Please bring lunch and water.
Date: Saturday, Oct. 14, 9:00 a.m.-2:30 p.m.
Location: Hennen Conservation Area, 4622 Dean St., Woodstock
