Hi Everyone,
Well the plans for our August field trip have just been finalized. We will be
heading to Jamaica Bay on August 22. The trip will be sponsored by the Ralph T.
Waterman Bird Club (http://www.watermanbirdclub.org/) and will be led by Rodney
Johnson. Rodney is the leader of the RTWBC Team in the World Series of Birding
(WSB). Those of you that participated in the WSB this year may already have met
him.

If you would like to read the trip report from our first visit to Jamaica Bay
which was written by Brent go to:

Please register for the trip by August 7 by sending me an email with your
name,specific plans for the date of the trip & transportation, and any concerns
or questions.

As always, parental permission forms must be in 1 week (August 15)
prior to the trip.

Just a reminder - NYSYBC field trips are for Youth Members and adults
transporting Youth Members only. Non members may attend one field trip
before joining.
