Chips, Chirps and Cheer – Holiday Social and Giving Back

Chips, Chirps and Cheer returns! For our holiday meeting we will enjoy chips-n-dips, birder chat (chirps) and some holiday cheer. To make the spirit even brighter we invite everyone to participate in our supply drive for the Florida Wildlife Hospital (FWH).

Doors will open at 6:30pm. We are kindly requesting everyone bring a dip to share. After a bit of social time, the Board will share a few chapter updates and a brief overview of some birding resources.

The holiday social will include raffles, stocking stuffers sales (proceeds go to Florida Wildlife Hospital), and birding stories. Florida Wildlife Hospital will share updates from their 50th anniversary year and an outlook on 2024 patient care.

Our holiday tree will include Letters to Santa from the FWH ambassador animals to share what’s on their Christmas list.

Ho, ho, happy Nature Holiday Cheer!!
