In May the Beckham Bird Club will have its 2004 Birdathon. The club has 
requests for funds from many different organizations this year. 

We need your support.  Please let us know if you will sponsor us as we try to 
raise money for the following projects approved by the Beckham Bird Club 
Board of Directors for this year's Birdathon. 

CONSERVATION ORGANIZATIONS: 
Kentucky State Nature Preserves Commission - To assist in purchasing an 
addition to Crooked Creek Barrens State Nature Preserve in Lewis County in NE
