Stott, a board member and vice-president of the Wildlife Trust of North America, Horsehead Wetlands Center. Bill has impressive academic, professional, and birding credentials. A graduate of George Washington University, he has served as vice president and dean of student affairs at Georgetown University and as president of Ripon College in Wisconsin. He has led natural history tours to Kenya, Uganda, Antarctica, and Belize, and has nearly 4000 species on his life list and 720 on his North America list. Bill is a member of the American Ornithologist Union, past president of the Fairfax, VA Audubon Society and is the founder of the Manassas Bull Run Christmas Bird Count. He is on the Boards of Directors for American Bird Conservancy, ABA, Cornell University Laboratory of Ornithology, and is a Fellow National in the Explorers Club. This should be a most interesting event. The evening, at Sherwood House, begins with refreshments at 7:15 p.m. Everyone is welcome. Please join us. Directions to Sherwood House. From the Baltimore Beltway (I-695) take Exit 29A Cromwell Bridge Road. Turn east (away from the city) onto Cromwell Bridge Road. In one mile, turn left at the sign "the Sherwood House" (which is BEFORE the sign for "Willow Grove Farm"). Drive down the long driveway, across the bridge, bear to the right up the hill and follow the one way signs to the stone house at the top of the hill. Park in the lot next to the house and enter the house under the arch over the driveway.
