Welcome! The Grand Traverse Audubon Club members enjoy birding together, meeting for nature-oriented programs or field trips, and participating in service projects related to the environment. We are concerned about the preservation of habitat for wildlife, and natural areas for the enjoyment of all residents. We are a chapter of the Michigan Audubon Society .
Our regular meetings are usually the fourth Thursday of the month at the Boardman River Nature Center on Cass Road at 7:00 PM. Everyone is welcome to attend!
Our Next Meeting:
OCTOBER
24 (Thursday) – Annual Meeting / “Eye of Newt and Toe of Frog”
This is the meeting when we elect officers for 2025. After this very important business meeting, we’ll be treated to a program about Frog and Toads and Witches, just in time for Halloween! Sydney Giddings from the Recreation Department of the Huron-Manistee National Forest will share a very entertaining talk about how amphibians became associated with witchcraft. * New for this year, we are holding our Annual Meeting at our regular meeting place of Boardman River Nature Center.
