OMS 2022 Fall Mycocamp Report
We’re happy to report a successful restart to our Fall Mycocamp.
Camp Coordinator Jeff Yarne and Safety Czar Mara Dale kept us safe from COVID. We had three great talks by renowned mycologist Else Vellinga. Despite difficult mushroom fruiting conditions (driest summer and warmest October on record) participants collected almost 100 identified taxa (see list below) on field trips with Leah Bendlin, Bee Marcotte, Else Vellinga, and Joe Cohen. Many campers tried their hand at mushroom identification, with a few campers trying microscopy. The Camp Magruder staff and cooks provided great meals, each with some mushroom twist. Camp wrapped up with an informative walk-through of the identified specimens.
