Support the DPS! Be a member, lead its trips, go on its trips, and come to its monthly meetings - because without the DPS, the desert would be a very lonely place. Thanks for being a DPS member.
Secretary John McCully and wife Wendy are out of the country traveling in Greece and Turkey. Therefore, no new members, no new emblem holders to report at this time.
