Celebrate Earth Day with Doug Larsons Songs and Stories of Nature and Ecology
**Sold Out!** We are, however, aware of several tickets that may be available. Please get in touch with John Dickson (jwdickso@gmail.com) if you wish any additional tickets.
The Elevator on the Chi Cheemaun is out of service. John will refund any tickets for people unable or uncomfortable to use stairs (even with the assistance of board and OSFN members). If you email John how many and the ticket number, he may be able to offer to sell those seats to any who still wish to attend.
The afternoon will begin at 2 pm.
Following the presentation by Doug Larson, please take advantage of the following:
- Doug Larson will have books and CDs available for sale. Although his presentation will feature his guitar, many of you will know him as one of the first researchers to age the old growth cedar along the Escarpment.
- Meet Islay Graham and have an opportunity to see her award winning Bluewater Science Fair display. She will be taking it to the National Science Fair competition in Fredricton. Islay did her research on the Endangered Piping Plover at Sauble Beach.
- Enjoy some delicious refreshments provided by the staff of the Chi Cheemaun.
OSFN Indoor Meetings are normally held on the second Thursday of the month at 7:00 p.m. at the Bayshore Community Centre, 1900 3rd Ave E Owen Sound. There are no Indoor Meetings in July and August. Please see the individual event listings below for more details.
We invite speakers with a wide range of expertise from Grey/Bruce and other parts of the province. These evenings are open to the public. The auditorium is open by 6:30. The meeting gets under way at 7:00, and may include brief announcements by other organizations as well as OSFN club activities, club business, social time, nature sightings and reports.
The club also offers a full schedule of outdoor activities during the year. Through these outings, members learn more about the birds, plants, mammals and geology of this part of Ontario. We also keep a protective eye on our precious natural areas.
