Birding at Howard Prior to the meeting!

RSVP is needed for attendance – register here today:

Please join us for our annual Members Meeting this year at the wonderful Toledo Zoo. The meeting will take place beginning at noon in the Zoo’s Great Hall. The meeting will include a short presentation from Zoo staff regarding the recognition of the importance of bird conservation and birding by the Zoo. In addiition, the Zoo will kindly allow OOS members access to the Zoo following the meeting (including their Christmas Lights event that afternoon/evening).

The day will start with birding – this year at the wonderful Howard Marsh MetroPark! Bird tours there will be led by OOS Board Members. After the half-hour drive to the Zoo, we’ll begin the meeting with a welcome and the presentation from Zoo Staff. We’ll follow that with a summary of the past year’s activity, a proposed change to the Bylaws change and nominees for election and re-election will be sent by email to all members no less than 30 days prior to the meeting.

Members will be welcomed to stay after the meeting to spend time talking with other members as well as OOS Board members. Following that time, attendees are welcome to visit the Zoo for the remainder of the day while the Board conducts their final quarterly meeting of the year.

RSVP’s are required so that we can provide your name to the Zoo for access.

Please send your name and email address to: Sue Evanoff
Sue will confirm your registration and share the process for attending the meeting. RSVP’s must be received by Monday, November 14th. Questions should be directed to Sue as well.
