Upcoming Events 2009

February 13

We'd like to invite you to our first annual "Beat the Winter Blues" volunteer potluck and stargazing party on Friday, February 13th at 6:30 p.m. Please bring a dish to share - we'll provide drinks, plates, utensils, etc. Join the refuge staff and eat, visit, and then (weather permitting), head outside with our own volunteer and astronomer Helen Palochko to check out the winter night sky with her awesome telescope. Please dress in layers. If it's too cloudy, we'll stay inside and watch "Planet Earth" on the big screen. We hope you can join us! Please RSVP (laura_bonneau@fws.gov or 419-898-0014) and let me know if you plan to attend.
