As you look through this month’s edition of the Musings, you’ll see that we have a busy fall season before us. Our small staff and essential cadre of volunteers have laid out a rich series of events that provide opportunities for you to get personally involved at our favorite wildlife refuge.
September and October will see a number of volunteer work events at the refuge. Autumn is a wonderful time to be at the Refuge, and there are few better ways to enjoy it than to sign up for one of our work party events. Each of these weekends, which are described elsewhere in this newsletter, address needs at the Refuge that have been brought to us by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. You will not only get to accomplish some healthy outdoor work in a beautiful environment, but you will also get to meet like-minded people who just might become new friends.
And, if you live in Central Oregon or can travel to Bend, don’t forget our upcoming special evening event, A Night with Friends, on October 7th. As this newsletter details, we have some excellent speakers lined up, and we know that when our membership comes together, a good time is usually had by all. I’ll be there, and I look forward to seeing you there, too!
