Our December meeting will be Tuesday, December 3rd, a week later than usual because of Thanksgiving, and it will be at Fossil Cove Brewing Company on N. Birch Ave., Fayetteville.
Our speaker will be longtime outdoor writer Flip Putthoff. Flip is a photojournalist writing the “Outdoors” column for the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. He’s been a newspaperman for more than 45 years.
Our location, Fossil Cove Brewing Company, offers a rotating selection of beers on tap including “The Rat”, a pale ale with a purpose. $1 of each pint benefits a local outdoor non-profit. For non-beer drinkers they have a selection of wine, hard cider, brunch drinks, a full service espresso bar and non-alcoholic beverages. On site the Wicked Wood Fired Pizza truck will be offering some of the most delicious pizza in NWA. Come early for dinner. Fossil Cove has supported outdoor non-profits in the community, including The Ozark Society, with event space, product sales and festivals for many years now. Here’s a link for more information.

We explore a new area close to home, Goats Beard Bluff, a Nature Conservancy Area west of Benton on the Saline. It looks like there is an old access road we might be able to use to get us down to the bluff line and the river. Meet at the Chik-fil-A by Bass Pro in SW Little Rock at 8:30. Its a short drive down to the area in SW Benton. Prepare to bushwhack, so bring good boots and a lunch. Come get your New Year started with an adventure.
