Short Description of Activity

All members have been encouraged to read sections of the forest plan that are of greatest interest to them . Broadband meeting was held on Sept. 27 and much of it was devoted to issues people have found in the GMUG plan and how to locate information in the plan. = 10 people for 2 hours. Wolf reintroduction was also discussed and several members participated one webinar==2 people, 2 hours

Reflection/Evaluation

Discussions during our meeting were very good. Even though many members are intimidated by the amount of information in the forest plan and by the difficultly of finding the specific information they are looking for, being able to talk about those concerns seemed to renew everyones energy and confidence for going on in their efforts. We have wide-ranging positions on wolf reintroduction, but again hearing the thoughts of others seemed to move those positions to a more centralized status.
