CARPOOLING ON TRIPS: We would like to
ask that all participants pay their carpooling fee up front
to driver at the beginning of the trip. Many times at the
end of trip we forget and hopefully this will help as gas
continues to get more expensive. Please be prepared with
the exact amount, and don't wait for driver to ask you for
it. JUST DO IT. Thanks.
ON ALL OUR FIELD TRIPS: Always sign the
trip sign-up sheet, bring water & a snack, binocular, hat,
sunscreen, bug repellent, wear a hat and closed toe shoes.
Be prepared for the weather. West Nile is still out there!
Carpooling in city limits 1.00 , county-wide 2.00 or as listed
to drivers. Call the leader if you need more information.
Be prepared.
