Good afternoon Birders,
If you are interested, the summary of the Spring 2026 Conference has been posted on the IOU website. You can read the summary here <https://iowabirds.org/IOU/Meetings/MeetingDetail.aspx?mtg=2081>. The minutes from both the Board and Member's meetings have been posted on the website as well. A huge thanks to Paul Skrade and members of the Upper Iowa University Audubon Student Chapter for hosting a wonderful meeting!
The Fall 2026 Conference is planned for Ames on September 11-13, 2026. This meeting will include a special silent auction in memory of Ann Johnson. Before her passing, AJ donated several keepsakes and books to the IOU. We hope to honor AJ in other ways at this conference, in addition to making these items available. We hope you can join us for this special event.
Take care,
Tyler Harms
