Fat Ass and New Trails Planned for Neversink

by pagodapacers

Berks Nature and a few members from BAMBA joined us at a general membership meeting earlier this year and shared some information about a trail project that’s being discussed for the Neversink Mountain Preserve.

They are applying for public grants and trying to raise funds on their own to fund the project. At our January meeting, we will be voting on an amount to donate to the cause. Additionally, Brandon Beane is working with Berks Nature and a private landowner nearby to plan a January Fat Ass as a fundraiser.

Look for details for the Fat Ass on the Pagoda Pacer Facebook Discussion Page. 

Special Guest at September Membership Meeting

by pagodapacers

I don’t know about you, but I’m really looking forward to the September General Membership Meeting, which is coming up on Thursday, September 12th. Why? Two reasons:

Vice President Lisa Domeshek will be conducting the meeting! (Don’t worry–Steve is fine; he’ll just be vacationing in Scotland.)

And…we’ll be welcoming representatives from Berks Nature for a special, interactive presentation.

Berks Nature is a non-profit land conservation organization that is involved in land preservation, water protection, and trail maintenance. They are celebrating their 50th anniversary during 2024, and throughout the year they are hosting a series of public input forums to collect feedback on priorities of the Berks County community.

The Pagoda Pacers invited Berks Nature to our next meeting on Thursday, September 12. The opening 30 minutes of the meeting will be a forum for us to discuss the outdoor resources and natural spaces in Berks that are important to us. Consider attending to share your input.

As usual, please rsvp if you plan on attending the meeting. You can respond through the Facebook event or send an email to president@pagodapacers.com. It helps us plan for enough food.

That’s Thursday, September 12th at the Mohnton Fire Company Social Quarters. Food will be served at 6:30 p.m. — meeting starts at 7 p.m. All members are welcomed to attend.
