Meetings Canceled / Field Trips Continued

The most optimistic forecast predicts late April as the time by which most ordinary Michigan citizens will have received their Covid vaccinations.  Until then, indoor congregations would of course be unnecessarily dangerous if not illegal.  So instead of continuing to announce month-by-month the status of our meetings/programs, we're canceling them now through April.  Grand Rapids Audubon and Holland Audubon have already announced similar plans.

Whether we hold the outdoor potluck picnic meeting on May 20 is still undecided.  In a few months if we decide to have it, we will contact Michigan State Parks to reserve the Snug Harbor pavilion again.

Meanwhile we will continue our monthly field trips on the dates of our original schedule, but with social-distancing, masks if appropriate, and without car-pooling once the trips begin.   How we conduct the May 15 Big Day Count is still anybody's guess.
