OSU College of Forestry and McDonald-Dunn Forest Tour

 September 27,2025

During the WCSWA Potluck in May we heard a lot about OSU College of Forestry happenings from  Dean Tom DeLuca.  He also extended an invite for us to come down to Corvallis and check out what’s new and what they have going on.  Please plan to join us as we take him up on that offer on Saturday Sept 27 for a tour of the new Peavy Hall and the Emmerson Wood Products Testing Lab and make a visit to the McDonald-Dunn research forest.  The plan will be to meet at 10am at Peavy Hall in Corvallis (corner of SW Jefferson Way and SW 30th Street, Corvallis, Or), take in the building and lab and then head to the McDonald-Dunn Forest, have our lunch (bring your own lunch and a chair) and then see and learn more about what is happening at the Forest.  We should be finished up at the Forest at 3pm.  You won’t want to miss this opportunity.

Carpooling is recommended. Parking is available in the “B” parking lot between Peavy Hall and the Emmerson Lab. You can enter “Peavy Forest Science Center, 3100 SW Jefferson Way, Corvallis OR 97331” in your navigation app. Drivers should either call Melanie Ellis-Roach, Assistant Director of Development at OSU College of Forestry at 541-223-3398 for a parking permit or purchase a “B” Visitor parking permit on OSU’s parking webpage: https://transportation.oregonstate.edu/parking/visitors .
