MUSKEGON COUNTY NATURE CLUB

In the late 1930's Muskegon High School biology teacher Anne Verne Fuller took her students on birding hikes. With the encouragement of the school librarian and renowned local naturalist Margaret Drake Elliott, those hikes continued after school. Thus began the Muskegon County Nature Club.

Originally the club met at the Muskegon County Museum located in the Vanderlaan School; later in the old jail building. Through many years and many people it evolved into today's official Muskegon chapter of Michigan Aubuon.

We would enjoy meeting you in person sometime, so please come to one of our meetings or field trips. If you decide to keep attending, please join the club. Dues are $20.00 per year. Benefits include our friendship and the monthly club newsletter.
