These are dates for BBC activities this year. Let me know if there are any
changes or additions. Note that the date of the Spring Birding Weekend at
Natural Tunnel State Park has been changed. That has removed conflicts with
other naturalist events in the area. The events will be headquartered at
the Powell Lodge at the Cove Ridge Center.
