Wednesday (8/21): Half day foray
Thursday (8/22): Full day foray

Our next club foray is Sunday August 4th.

Club foray Sunday, July 7!

PPMS members will receive an email on Saturday afternoon with details on where to meet.

As always, meeting time will be 8:30am.

*Bring water, snacks, a basket not made of plastic or rubber, a knife and sunblock which is preferably aroma-free.

We are postponing tomorrow’s foray (Friday, 6/14) because all this lovely moisture we’ve been getting has come to a screeching halt.

We want you to know that we don’t make this decision lightly.

Brian Barzee, James Chelin and Jennifer Bell have been scouting all over southern Colorado this week. The season will continue to be one of the best we’ve seen in a long time—but nothing is popping currently. The mycelium is waiting for its moment…which will be soon.

So pour yourself a glass of wine, read the new Sporeaddict edition, study the Vera book & save some energy for when the next flush begins.

We are planning TWO forays this week…one on Thursday and one on Saturday. All members will find details in an e-mail which will go out soon!

Pikes Peak Mycological Society is going out for a foray this Sunday, 5/26.

We will meet at 8:30 AM.

Meeting location is TBA. Keep an eye on your email for updated info on where to meet.

Greetings mycophiles!
