Finally, a warm and sunny day for some tree planting at the Sewanee Utility District. Sewanee students recently planted shortleaf pine on a cleared area of the wastewater sprayfield with Nate Wilson. Nate will become our Domain Manager in mid-April.
Ashley Bardet (C'10), Ken Smith, Mary Elizabeth Watson (C'11), Deanna Wolford (C'12), and Johnson Jeffers (C'10) met briefly with Wilbur Hitchcock at the 2010 Society of American Forester meeting in Lexington, KY. Mr. Hitchcock supervised several harvests on the Domain in the 1960s.
Homer Kunz is seen here in younger days with Vice Chancellor McCrady. Mr. Kunz was instrumental in building Snowden Hall, Woods Lab, and other buildings at Sewanee.
