The 41st annual Cypress Creek CBC will be January 1. We will again meet at Paul
Rushing Park. It is on Katy-Hockley Road in west Harris County.
(Directions<http://www.pct3.com/parks/rushing-park/>). If you have participated
before, please contact your area leader directly. If you are new to the count
or would like to switch areas please contact an area leader of your choice or
Kendra Kocab (klebwoods@xxxxxxxx). Otherwise, please be at Paul Rushing Park in
the morning, and we will assign you to an area then. Beginners are welcome as
are advanced birders and all skill levels in between. Everyone can participate
and contribute. Anyone going with the North area or the KPC groups MUST sign a
release or they cannot enter KPC property. It will save time if they bring a
signed copy of the release
form<http://static1.squarespace.com/static/538500c2e4b040e24f396a4c/t/53c7e8fae4b09ad686a954fa/1405610234892/Adult-Release-2012.pdf>.
I have maps, bird lists, and detail forms which I will send to area leaders.
If you would like to have your personal copy of any of these documents just
e-mail me and ask.
The countdown dinner will be at Luby's in Cypress. Most people will be able to
reach this location about 30 minutes after you leave your area. We will start
meeting at Luby's after dark for dinner, and the actual countdown of birds seen
will start at 6:45 PM. Sorry you have to buy your own supper.
