Join Us for a Very Special Keynote
We have so much to share this year that we鈥檝e split our traditional keynote slot into three riveting discussions of 约炮视频 in Florida across 125 years, our unique place in the Sunshine State鈥檚 conservation history, and our role in the future of conservation in the Western Hemisphere.
Paul Gray, PhD, Everglades science coordinator, will give the first talk during our welcome lunch hour. From the plume trade to the senseless slaughter of birds before the advent of the Christmas Bird Count, Dr. Gray will trace the origins of 约炮视频 and the modern conservation movement.
During the Friday evening dinner event, Julie Wraithmell, executive director, will emcee a retrospective of 约炮视频 accomplishments in Florida.
Finally, on Saturday morning, 约炮视频 Chief Conservation Officer Marshall Johnson will share 约炮视频's ambitious Flight Plan hemispheric vision, with an engaging morning celebrating how Florida is leading the way in its implementation at the state and chapter levels!
Field Trips Galore
You won't want to miss this year's suite of exciting field trips, ranging from a boat-based birding tour of the Indian River Lagoon, ramble for shorebirds and migrants at Lighthouse Point Park, and urban wildlife viewing at Ormond Beach's Central Park and Environmental Discovery Center.
Added bonus! West Volusia 约炮视频 Society will host a special open house at Florida Scrub-Jay mecca, Lyonia Preserve, for early arrivers on Thursday afternoon.
