We are planning right now for our upcoming season and we are really excited. We are planning some great programs, field trips to venues new and old and adventures with many of our wonderful community partners... and a couple of exciting events right here in Daytona will have all eyes focused on birds and Audubon.

Audubon Assembly

...comes to Daytona November 7-9. The focus of the assembly is a review of conservation initiatives supported by Audubon Florida and the state local chapters. It is the annual Audubon gathering.  A full docket of speakers and workshops will be offered. It's a wonderful event to meet and network with our friends from far and wide.
