Annual Meeting
June 4, 2016 @ 4:00 pm - 8:00 pm
$22
Join us at the lovely Nature Center at Shaker Lakes for our Annual Meeting on June 4th. We will start with a short nature walk on the boardwalk around Shaker Lakes, followed by our Meet & Greet Wine reception at four o’clock.
The chapter meeting follows and we have a special treat this year. We will be announcing the winners of our first ever photo contest! The winning photos will be on display throughout the evening.
Following a buffet-style, catered dinner, welcome our special guest Jeffrey Hall, a writer and photographer from Franklin, Pa. Jeffrey’s articles and photographs have appeared in Living Bird, NJ Audubon, Underwater Naturalist, and numerous other publications, as well as the Pennsylvania Society for Ornithology’s website. His most recent presentation for ASGC was at last November’s Backyard Naturalist program. Jeffrey retired in 2011 after 25 years of teaching biology. He is president of Bartramian Audubon Society and also active in Seneca Rocks Audubon Society.
The Nature Center at Shaker Lakes was founded in 1966 as the result of a grassroots community effort to preserve the Shaker Parklands from becoming the route for a new freeway connecting Cleveland’s East Side to downtown. The Parklands had been designated in the late 19th century as a natural green space, set aside by the city of Cleveland for the benefit of its fast growing population. City and suburban residents found that they could enjoy the area along the Doan Brook, from Warrensville Center Road through Rockefeller Park to Lake Erie, and stay in touch with the natural world.
The Nature Center is located at 2600 South Park Boulevard in Cleveland, OH. For directions, contact the Nature Center at 216-321-5935 or email naturecenter@shakerlakes.org.
