Its one thing to support this project and its another to give a
substantial sum of money. We might think about setting an upper limit to
our money contribution, as it seems much beyond our budget to fund the
whole thing.

I favor us doing something to support the radio tower. Could that
come under a collaborative grant?

November 19th. If anyone has a project they would like to put
forward, let us know -- although we've done a good job spending
our grant funding, at the moment, I don't have any ideas for a
project that would require additional funding. Boardwalks at our
various wetlands would be nice, but unfortunately, most grants
don't cover those, and they're usually much more expensive than
any grant money would provide.

in our area which would track all birds that have chips. There's
currently one on the coast, and if we were to have one in the
mountains, it would help provide complete state coverage. As a
board, we have to decide if we want to partner on this, either
monetarily ($7000 or so is cost) or just with outreach. Please
let me know your thoughts. I think it would be a good idea to
have some idea of our position before Curtis talks to us.
