The meeting was well attended by 118 at my last count. Many goof points were addressed by the audience. A survey form was handed out as well as comment sheet along with questions and suggestions for the DNR to consider. A map and a couple photos were displayed showing the Tahuya locations that are under consideration.The 2 areas in Tahuya are Blacksmith lake and Hurd road. The Hurd road road area it across from the motorcycle staging area on Dewatto road. Each area is about 40 acres. I tried to get pics of the map etc, but could not get close enough to get one that was clear and readable.
I passed out nearly 50 WaGuns cards and left another 50-75 on the registration table.
