Please join us as we welcome ABA President Jeff Gordon at our first meeting of the new season!
Who: Aiken Audubon Society Meeting - Free event; no RSVP required.
What: Birding Together: How Birding Can Save Your Life and Maybe, Just Maybe, Save the World - Presented by ABA President Jeff Gordon
Alvaro Jaramillo has said that if golf is a good walk spoiled, then birding is a good walk perfected. It's such a simple, compelling, positive message. But that positivity is something that birders as a community have relatively rarely managed to convey. Why is it that with as great a "product" to sell as the redemptive power of a passionate curiosity about nature and belonging to community of some of the most interesting, caring people anywhere, we've made so little traction with the wider public? Join American Birding Association President and Colorado Springs resident Jeffrey Gordon for a celebration of the power of birding to heal and transform, not only our own lives but even our world.
When: Wednesday, September 19, 2012; doors open at 6:30 p.m. for coffee & socializing; program begins at 7:00 p.m.
Where: Colorado Division of Widlife, 4255 Sinton Road, Colorado Springs - please use rear entrance
Contact information: Telephone - 719-596-2916 / Website: www.aikenaudubon.com
We hope to see you there!
Christine A. Bucher
President, Aiken Audubon Society
