[Ponte Alto] Firewood at Pennsic

[Miles de Locwode]

Abel,

We have always called either the Cooper's or one of the firewood suppliers
listed in the merchant guide.  We have done so either Saturday or Sunday of
Land Grab Weekend and have not had a problem.  I think that they will be
able to handle the demand but if you wait you may have to wait longer for
delivery.

  Is there a place in PA that we can get wood from? I think that the regular
Pennsic supply will be booked.

    Hi All,

    For those who are going to Pennsic this year and are planning to bring
their own firewood.  Please read below, it is copied from the Pennsic
webpage today:


    Firewood Quarantine in Butler County
    Pennsylvania state officials have placed a quarantine on the
transportation of ash trees and firewood into or out of Allegheny, Butler,
Beaver and Lawrence counties after an emerald ash borer -- a tiny green
beetle from Asia -- was discovered in a tree in Cranberry.
    (Cooper's Lake Campground, in Slippery Rock, PA, is within Butler
County.)

    The quarantine restricts the movement of ash nursery stock, green lumber
and any other ash material, including logs, stumps, roots and branches, and
all wood chips.

    Because of the difficulty in distinguishing between species of firewood,
campers are being asked to use only locally harvested firewood, which should
all be burned on-site and not carried to new locations. All types of
hardwood firewood, including ash, oak, maple and hickory, are considered
quarantined.
