TN-Birders: Below is an edited portion of a post to the Kentucky Birds e-mail list which was sent out on behalf of the Kentucky Ornithological Society by Kathy Caminiti of Burlington, Ky. The Bristol Bird Club is proud to have the KOS announce that we are a full, equal sponsor of this historic statewide Kentucky event. This breaks new ground as a partnership for us all. The BBC began work on this project at the invitation of the Board of Directors of the KOS last fall. Final agreements between KOS and BBC were made October 22, 2003. We are very proud that the BBC was sought for this involvement. We appreciate the KOS.
