We hope you're enjoying the autumn and our incoming winter birds. This email is to make you aware of several things:
- It's only $20 for an individual to join AAS for a year. Student dues are $5, family dues are $30, and a life membership costs only $250 (a bargain!) And if you join now, your membership will run through the end of 2026, so you'll get 2 months for free! To join, go to https://arbirds.org/AAS/Membership.aspx. - Among other things, a membership gets you either a print or electronic copy of our newsletter, Arkansas Birds. To see the latest edition, go to https://arbirds.org/AAS/Newsletter.aspx. We've added some new features, including a AAS Member Spotlight and Board Member Spotlight. We hope you enjoy them! - Please mark your calendars for our next meeting, which will take place in Fort Smith from April 24 through 26. We hope to see you there! - We're an all-volunteer organization in our 70th year. But it takes volunteers for us to exist. *We are seeking candidates NOW for the board offices of president, vice-president, and secretary to start in the spring of 2026.* *If you're interested or know someone who is or just want more information, please contact Patty McLean, Nominating Committee Chair, <plm108...> <plm108...>, or me.* - That's all for now, folks! Thanks for your support of birding and AAS!
