Audubon Society
(NSVAS)
Welcome to the Shenandoah Audubon web page. We have made some exciting newsletter and web site changes during the past year, and also updated our logo and abbreviated our name to more fully represent the area we serve. Many special and fun events are in store in the near future. Please visit our expanded pages for more information on what we've been up to and what's to come!
We have many ways in which you can participate and share your love for birds and our environment in the beautiful northern Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Please visit our Events calendar often for the latest information on upcoming meetings and ways to get involved. Feel free to review our Mission Statement, read the latest online version of our Oak Leaf newsletter, and join our local chapter by completing and sending in the Local Membership form with $15 annual family dues.
If you would like to participate in our events before joining Shenandoah Audubon, you are welcome to do so. You can also print our Bird List for your own backyard and field birding trips. And, of course, we hope you will be interested enough in the work of Shenandoah Audubon to actively participate in our public meetings, Board meetings and special projects.
Please join us in welcoming our newly elected officers for 2007. We are looking forward to an exciting year of fun and informative public meetings, projects and events. Come join us!
Thank you for joining us on the web...we look forward to meeting you at one of our upcoming events!
