During the past several days, we have had approximately 1,100 acres burned by forest fires. Our county has experienced the driest September, October and so far in November, in over 100 years on record. At times the smoke and dust have been terrible. It is hard to express the thoughts and emotions experienced surrounding these fires.

Fortunately, our Dade County Forestry Commission and the Georgia Forestry Commission crews, as well as our local fire departments, have managed to control the fires without losing any dwellings or loss of lives thus far. Several of you who read this and view these photos might recognize some of the places we have hunted whitetail deer and turkeys together.

Tomorrow our local weather forecast is giving us a 60% chance of rain and a somewhat lesser percentage chance of rain in the coming days. We haven't had this much opportunity for precipitation for weeks. These photos were taken here in Dade County and one photo was taken in Chattanooga, giving a view from approximately 18 miles away.

Keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

We are excited to announce that our great friend Karen Renee Seginak will be hosting a class in which she will share her expertise and knowledge in outdoor photography.

Karen’s class will not be focused on the technical aspects of photography, as she uses very basic, easy, durable, inexpensive, lightweight equipment that anyone can readily use. She wants to have her class focused from an aesthetic, inspirational view instead.

Her goal with this seminar will be to “encourage outdoor enthusiasts and travelers to develop their eye for photo opportunities, to portray their travels more thoroughly, and to simply have fun capturing their treasured memories photographically.”

Karen has experience photographing on five continents and her photos have been used to promote tourism in Tanzania, South Africa, Argentina, North America, and Kyrgyzstan as well.

Karen has received awards from Dallas Safari Club, Wild Sheep Foundation, Hatch magazine, North Dakota Game and Fish magazine, and the Ward Museum of Wildfowl Art for several of her photos. The Conservation Imperative and Conservation Frontlines have also used some of her photos to accompany her articles for them.

We look forward to everyone getting an opportunity to meet Karen, and be sure to sign up for her class for an amazing opportunity to learn about outdoor photography on Saturday, February 18, 2023!

For any questions concerning Karen's class or our event please contact us at (706) 657-3527 or [email protected].
