Working to preserve earth's diversityAfter a great meal complete with scrumptious seafood from Dixie Crossroads Seafood Restaurant and delicious Southern Bar-B-Q with all the fixings served by the gang from Hot Stuff Catering, you can settle in for an outstanding Keynote Presentation by John Acorn, who is perhaps best known as the writer and host of the Canadian television series Acorn, The Nature Nut, a family-oriented, how-to-be-a-naturalist show. John's presentation, "Field Notes: An Odd Form of Self -helpTherapy," takes a humorous look at the somewhat serious subject of keeping a detailed personal journal. Do you keep field notes? Life lists, local lists, year lists, winter lists or yard lists? Learn how keeping a journal can help you manage your own experience and avoid the pitfalls that come with letting the lists, and the birds you "need" control your time in the field.
Jan 27, 1:30pm-5:30pm; $20.00 per person; $5.00 for children under 12
**Keynote presentation only: $10.00
Menu: BBQ pulled pork, chicken, baked beans, cold slaw, rolls and Hot Stuff's famous seven-layer cookies. A big crowd pleaser is a variety of Dixie Crossroads' wild ocean shrimp with crab bites and chicken wings, beer, wine and soft drinks. Vegetarian lasagna will be available.
