And another one from Nick...


The Steering Committee for Wisconsin Breeding Bird Atlas 2 (WBBA2) is 
establishing a Communications Committee to manage aspects of a project 
that will span the next seven years. WBBA2 will be the successor to 
theatlas initiated in 1995 and will provide a permanent record of all 
the birds breeding here in the second decade of the 21st Century. We are 
looking to recruit a volunteer to serve as committee chair as well as 
several volunteer committee members.
The communications chair’s responsibilities would include:
• Serving on the WBBA2 Steering Committee
• Helping to establish an overall communications strategy aimed 
primarily at the state’s birding community
• Overseeing the content of WWBA2 section of the Wisconsin Society for 
Ornithology website, in collaboration with WSO’s web administrator.
• Managing the development and distribution of any printed material such 
as newsletters and brochures for use internal to the project
• Coordinating WBBA2 use of social media
• Developing a media contact list and appropriate news releases for both 
birding publications and the general media
Ideally, candidates for this position will display:
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Familiarity with social media
• A commitment to avian conservation
• An ability to work collaboratively with a diverse group of people, 
most of them volunteers
• A self-starter ethic, creativity and strong problem-solving skills
Previous experience managing communications for an organization is a 
plus, but is not required.
If interested, please contact the Steering Committee chair, Nick Anich 
(nicholas.anich@xxxxxxxxxxxxx), by September 12. Please provide 1 
paragraph that explains why you are interested in joining the atlas 
steering committee and details your skills and prior applicable 
experiences. Also please note whether you are willing to possibly serve 
as chair, or would prefer to just be a committee member.
