The Mississippi Forestry Association is again providing this great activity for Scouts.  This event will be held at Hood Scout Reservation. Forestry Day will provide a great outdoor experience for Scouts and Scouters to learn about Pulp and Paper and Forestry from experts of the MFA, foresters, and others and spend a day.  There will be no camping at this event this year.  Cub Scouts will have the opportunity to learn about tree identification and the proper way to plant a seeding as well as take a seedling home to plant.
