JANUARY 2021 NEWSLETTER
After many months of Zoom meetings, we are re-starting our in-person meetings on Wednesday, January 19th. Please join us at 7pm for a presentation entitled “Wild Things Of The Nature Coast” by Gary Kuhl, a local wildlife photographer. We will again be meeting at Unity Church, 2628 W. Woodview Lane in Lecanto. Doors open at 6:30 and we will be using the side door by the stage.
Due to covid, the church has new guidelines for meetings at their facility. The room is set up to accommodate CDC/FDA criteria for social distancing (10 tables, 6 chairs at each). We will be using their set-up as opposed to lining up chairs in rows as we have done in the past. All surfaces will be sanitized before your arrival. If using the bathroom, please wipe down any surfaces that have been touched (disinfectant is on the bathroom counter). Masks are to be worn while in the building. If you are sneezing, coughing, not feeling well or have been exposed to anyone who has been sick, please stay home. If you have questions or comments, please email us at President@CitrusCountyAudubon.org.
In addition to our Jan. 4th Christmas Bird Count, the following events have been scheduled:
1/14 field trip at 8 am – Lake Apopka (rescheduled from 1/7)
1/22 field trip at 8 am – Ocala Wetlands
More information can be found in the “calendar” section on our website at: www.CitrusCountyAudubon.org.
Please remember to renew your CCAS membership for 2022 ($20-single, $25-family). This can be done through PayPal on our website, or by sending a check to P.O.Box 527 in Lecanto, FL 34460. Additional donations are welcome and are tax-deductible.
On another sad note, December 3rd saw the passing of Thomas Gulley – Fred Hileman’s life partner of 51 years & husband of the last 6 years. A celebration of Tom’s life is being arranged for some time in February.
