We are a competitve woodsman team. Our goal is to send people to woodsmen competitions and eventually host our own competition. We will raise money by selling firewood and use the money to buy all of our safety and competition equipment. It is free to join the organization so everything will be paid for through fundraising, sponsorships, and donations. The club will focus on the competitive side o
f things but anyone is welcome to come hang out and learn more. For example, we may host a class on campus about chainsaw use. People can come and try out a chainsaw for the first time or they can come and take a refresher. Competitive events will include:
