The BBQ Potluck Lunch will be at Chipeta Park. BBQ will be provided by the Town of Nederland! Please bring a side dish or desert to share.
As a reminder, to operate a chain saw during the event, all sawyers must be certified or have gone through the Saws and Slaws training class.
Safety Gear: All sawyers will be required to wear: Hardhat, Eye Protection, Ear Protection, Chaps, Boots, and Gloves. Swampers (people dragging slash) are strongly encouraged to wear: Eye Protection, Ear Protection, Gloves, and a Hardhat. We recommend that all participants wear long sleeve shirts and pants to minimize scratches from handling slash. S&S will have free foam ear protection available.
We looking forward to seeing you on Sunday!
