This year's Fall Pot-luck is taking a slightly different form, and we hope you enjoy it. In an effort to get to know our YAMS youngsters better, we are planning a combined event: Geezers and Fledglings together. So join us for a Fall Pot-luck and Pizza Party featuring the Ancient Murrelets vs. Young Ancient Murrelets Bird-a-thon around Spring Lake, Saturday, September 13, 2:30 to 5 PM. Here's the plan: We'll gather at the picnic tables at Lower Oak Knolls Picnic area (38.4496804, -122.6507955). Take the Newanga Avenue entrance and follow signs to Lower Oak Knolls. From parking lot, look for brightly colored table cloths and signs locating our tables. RROS members please bring a pot-luck plate - salad, main or dessert, to share, to accompany marvelous Mary's Pizzas. Its useful to bring your own utensils, beverages, and camping chairs. Lisa and Liz will organize the teams (old geezers and young bucks) which will circumnavigate the lake in different directions and return to the tables for a tally, prizes, pizza and more. A very short business meeting will follow as this event replaces our usual Sugarloaf pot-luck event. Start the new birding year off right, and join the fun.
