Hello KOS Members and Friends!
At the KOS Meeting this weekend, September 13-15, we are holding a silent
auction of a number of birding-related books. *Please bring your checkbooks
and an extra tote bag* - you didn't think we were going to send you off
with your books in a plastic bag, did you?
To get you started thinking about our offerings, following is a list of
some of the books we are auctioning. Pls take a look at the list and start
thinking of the books you'd like to add to your library!
More details to follow at the KOS Meeting. If you have questions, feel free
to email me (off the listserv).
Thanks, and I'll see you on Friday!
