An FYI forwarded by Katrina Heinzen at the Nature Center at Shaker Lakes,
from an original email sent out by our outreach coordinator, David Wright.

As you will see, this speaker has done much research on social dynamics
among birdwatchers and also has many ideas on how to encourage minority
youth in careers in environmental sciences.  Hope you can join us for this
intriguing and important discussion.


Hello Friends and Colleagues,
Please attend if you can, and certainly please feel free to forward this to
your clubs, friends, community groups, school contacts etc. Thanks.
