Next week will be Refuge Week. This is a week long celebration of our National Wildlife Refuges. We have many fine NWRs within easy driving distance of the DC area. Many could also use our help. Want to hear more about the Audubon Refuge Keepers Program in person? Lora Wondolowski of NAS will be speaking at the October program of the Prince George's Audubon Society on the ARK program. We are organizing support for several of our local refuges, both volunteer and legislative. There will also be a presentation about Eastern Neck NWR on Maryland's Eastern Shore. This is one of the least visited of our many refuges on the Delmarva peninsula and has many volunteer opportunities available.
