Banner for annual picnic
Join us for a night of food and fellowship. Our annual picnic is a great time to spend getting to know fellow birders better. And of course the food is always outstanding.
We will gather again at the pavillion adjacent to the Marion Diehl Recreation Center just across the parking lot from the Senior Center. Here's a map.
We'll meet to eat at 6:30 PM. The club will provide drinks and ice. You will need to bring place settings for each person plus a delicious dish to serve 8-10 people. Extra chairs and table cloths are optional.
So join us on Thursday, May 2nd at the Tyvola Senior Center (2225 Tyvola Rd.) The presentation starts at 7:30 PM, but come early to have a snack and a cup of Birds & Beans Bird Friendly Coffee. It's so delicious you may just want to order a bag for yourself!
Annual Raffle: Judy Mizell Signed Print

There will still be time to purchase tickets for our annual raffle to support sending several students to summer camp at the Carolina Raptor Center. This year's prize is a signed Judy Mizell framed print of skimmers. There will also be a surprize, added item to raffled as well. Drawing will take place at our picnic.
