On July 11, Sue Combs , our FANs treasurer, had the opportunity to leave her computer and spreadsheets behind, and join bird bander Ken Hashagen on the peninsula to band three healthy female kestrel chicks. She learned so much about kestrels and the banding program! Click HERE and HERE for more information and photos of our nest box monitoring programs. CLICK HERE for a video of the banding process!
A Great Way to Get Involved...
Will You Volunteer to Help FANs:
Many of you volunteer for specific stewardship projects throughout the year, and we deeply appreciate your commitment. However, as a non-staffed organization that is growing quickly, the FANs leadership is looking for a volunteer for a very specific need. If your are willing to make a commitment for at least a year this role, please contact Marilynne Keyser, our past-president, by email at mtkeyser@gmail.com. Communications Coordinator: This would be someone to coordinate all of our media needs. There is a strong committee to work with made up of four members, each handling different areas of FANs media: Sue Combs—FANs website Marilynne Keyser—FANs Facebook page Ilene Smith—FANs online newsletter Phyllis Carlin—outside media, including the CRR Telegraph |
PLEASE RENEW YOUR MEMBERSHIP.... TODAY!
Our renewal date each year falls on July 1! This means that if you last donated any time during 2022, it's time to consider another donation. Click HERE for more info. If you are not sure when you made your last gift, check with Sue at suekeeper@gmail.com. CRR Independence Day Fair Booth - 2022
