butterfly count meeting spots, please contact me at wgh@xxxxxxxxxx,
(423) 756-4106 (H) or (423) 326-9248 (cell). Come prepared!!!!! Bring $3
NABA fee, binoculars, sunblock, snacks and plenty of fluids to drink, as
it'll likely be very HOT! We will probably walk through overgrown, weedy

spray as well. Flip flops or crocs are NOT recommended footwear.
