Good afternoon! 


On behalf of the Virginia Society of Ornithology, the Monticello Bird Club, and 
the Augusta Bird Club, I am writing to make sure that your club's members know 
that this year's VSO annual meeting will be May 8-10, headquartered at the 
beautiful Wintergreen Resort with its spectacular mountain-top setting. Full 
details are available at http://www.virginiabirds.net/VSO-Annual-Meeting.html 


Could you kindly help us spread the word to the members of your club, whether 
by forwarding this directly to your members, announcing at your next meeting, 
or including in other communication? 


A few things to keep in mind: 


    * We welcome all birders and naturalists, whether or not they are 
personally members of the VSO. (Of course, we hope that participants will have 
such a rewarding experience that they will wish to join the VSO, but it is not 
mandatory.) 
    * April 8 deadline for lodging reservations at special VSO rates 
(single/double rooms or a 2-, 3-, or 4-bedroom condo) is coming up fast! See 
http://www.virginiabirds.net/VSO-Annual-Meeting.html for details 
    * Register by April 30 by using the online Paypal form at 
http://www.virginiabirds.net/VSO-Annual-Meeting-Registration.html , or 
downloading a form that can be printed and mailed with a check. 




This will be a very special weekend of birding and excellent companionship. In 
addition to a variety of field trips on both designed to find Blue Ridge avian 
specialties, a special highlight of the weekend will be the Saturday evening 
banquet with keynote speaker Scott Weidensaul, internationally known author, 
naturalist, conservationist, and Pulitzer-Prize nominee. He'll speak on Project 
SNOWStorm, focusing on Snowy Owls. 


Please let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for helping to spread 
the word. 


Sincerely, 


Crista Cabe 
Weyers Cave, VA 
on behalf of the Planning Committee
