Greetings, Just a reminder that the 2007 TOS fall meeting is coming up in 2 weeks (Nov. 2, 3 & 4). Highland Rim chapter is hosting in Manchester. The place will be Ambassador Inn, same site as winter meeting a year an a half ago. See details and directions at the TOS web site under fall meeting. _http://www.tnbirds.org/Fall07-meeting.htm_ (http://www.tnbirds.org/Fall07-meeting.htm) The weekend will consist of birding the local hot spots, comradery with TOS members from across the state and a paper session on Saturday afternoon presenting recent bird related scientific projects. Chuck Nicholson is moderating the paper session and may still have space for presenters. Check with him if you have research to present. We are planning to work in a TOS Board of Directors meeting at the end of the paper session aprox. 4:30 Saturday afternoon. Chapter presidents please alert your directors to try to attend or send proxy if possible. Included in this business meeting will be a report by the TOS Bird Records Committee. If you have an item to be considered please contact me off-line and I will try to include put it on the agenda. And I will send you a tentative agenda if requested. As of Monday when I made reservations there were still rooms available at the group rate (a good price!) so I hope to see many of you there. 'Looking forward to it!
