Virginia Breeding Bird Atlas Training

From President Cheryl Jacobson:
Greetings WBC Members:  I have been talking to many of you about VA Breeding Bird Atlas and the need for more volunteers for our Region 11.  You have expressed interest but the need for more training.  I  promised training and help for everyone who becomes involved.  I am excited to announce the following:
 
Virginia Breeding Bird Atlas Training-Ashley Peele (Project Coordinator who is based at the Conservation Management Institute at Virginia Tech) and Dave Youker (a member of WBC and Region 11 Leader)
 
DateApril 13, 2018…. 9:30-12:30
 
Location:  Freedom Park Training Room
 
Directions: From Interstate 64 take exit 234A to Route 199. From Route 199 take the Longhill Road exit. Turn right onto Longhill Road (Route 612). Follow Longhill Road until it ends at the park gates. Once inside the park gates, follow road to the parking lot.
 
We are exploring many fun ways of surveying in our assigned blocks, including working in mini teams and conducting a monthly first Saturday walk/survey in a  somewhat close priority block.  Don’t miss out on the fun!!  Mark your calendar and Save the date. 
 
If you are unable to attend a weekday training…we are invited to join Hampton Roads Bird Club on Saturday morning April 14th.  I will send more details once the location of that training is determined.   Also, you can explore more by going to:  http://amjv.org/index.php/vabba2/about 
 
If you have questions, please email me at jcheryljoy@aol.com .  I hope to see you at the training.  
 
Best Year of the Bird
Cheryl Jacobson
