Hi Jason,
A small group (including two current DC Audubon board members) has been
working to organize this count in hopes of reengaging local birders and
drumming up interest in the DC chapter. We plan to hold a public meeting
and elect a new board in the next few months. I will be sure to post the
details of that public meeting as soon as we have it scheduled.
Sincerely,
Zach Slavin
Washington, DC
