The 2012 Elizabethton Butterfly Count begins at 9 am at the Sycamore Shoals State Park Visitor Center on Sunday August 05. This count is sponsored by North American Butterfly Association (NABA), for which there is a $3 per person fee. All are welcome, no experience required. Bring water and sun protection, and a picnic lunch. We usually wrap up around 5 pm or so. If you have concerns or questions please call me anytime at (423) 483-0470. E-mail is okay, but close to the event date, may not get read in time. I hope you can join us. Don Holt Johnson City, TN
