We have two events coming up we'd like to tell you about. The first, is this year's Audubon Academy, March 27-29 in Haines City, Florida. The Audubon Academy features  leadership training, great field trips and some superb keynote speakers. For more information, contact  Jacqui Sulek, jsulek@audubon.org.

The second event is Collier County Audubon's "Funds for Feathers & Friends" Gala on Thursday, February 19, 2009 at the Collier Athletic Club, 710 Goodlette Road N. Naples, FL 34102. The evening will include cocktails, dinner, and a silent auction. And the special guest speaker this year is Nathaniel Reed.

We'll keep you posted on both events.
